Táimid ag seoladh tionscadal tábhachtach, WikiWomen, ar Lá Eorpach na dTeangacha, mar chuid de Chomhdháil Celtic Knot a bheidh ar siúl i bPort Láirge an 26ú Meán Fómhair ó 11:30-14:00. Beidh an ócáid seo ag cur gníomhartha na mban agus mionteangacha chun cinn ar Vicipéid, agus cuirfimid fáilte roimh mhúinteoirí, daltaí, agus institiúidí cultúrtha.
Ní amháin go gcuireann an tionscadal seo béim ar chomhionannas inscne agus ar éagsúlacht teangacha, ach is deis iontach é freisin do GLCM áitiúla nasc a dhéanamh le scoileanna agus múinteoirí, agus a bheith páirteach sa chlár. Mura bhfuil tú in ann freastal ar an gComhdháil iomlán, is féidir clárú don imeacht seolta WikiWomen, le tae agus caife saor in aisce, líonrú, agus plé ar an dtionscadail.
What will happen at the Official Launch?
Join us for the official launch of the WikiWomen Schools Toolkit an exciting new resource that brings together students, educators, and cultural institutions (GLAMs) to promote the achievements of women on Wikipedia, the world’s largest knowledge platform. This project, part of the Erasmus+ programme, focuses on bridging the gender gap online, while empowering students with research, digital, and language skills.
