Work plan

This is CIS-A2K's Work Plan (January 2025 – December 2027) for Indian language Wikimedia projects. The work plan gives details of the various activities planned with the projection of outcomes and expected impact. A2K Team has put together this work plan based on wider consultations with stakeholders including Indic language Wikimedians.

Media strategy

CIS-A2K works to foster the growth of Indic language Wikipedias across India. In order to do so effectively, it is important for us to engage with Indic language communities who are spread across India and the globe. Effectively communicating our work through social media to our communities and through traditional media globally, is one of our strategic priorities. Our media strategy has been drafted both in accordance with the social media strategy of the Wikimedia Foundation as well as the print media best practices CIS-A2K has followed over the years.
