CBSUA Wiki Education at Calabanga campus was launched in partnership with PhilWiki Community and Bikol Wikipedia Community.
An activity agreement was signed between CBSUA-Calabanga campus administrator and the PhilWiki Community to outline the responsibilities of both parties during the culminating program of the 15th Bikol Wikipedia anniversary celebration held last 31 October 2023. Six (6) institutional partners including CBSUA were recognized by Bikol Wikipedia Community and PhilWiki Community for their significant contribution and outstanding support. CBSUA Wiki Education, a joint program of the International Relations Office of CBSUA-Calabanga and the PhilWiki Community and Bikol Wikipedia Community, marks a significant milestone as the first university-based Wikimedia community in the Philippines.[1]
