The role of grant-makers goes beyond money. Grant-makers (foundations, public administrations, agencies...) influence the entire cultural and non profit sector through their power-dynamics, action-driven communication tools (based on guidelines and application forms), keywords, approaches, networks and programs. This presentation wants to trigger the involvement of grant-makers in contributing to the Wikimedia projects, because they are key stakeholders with the capacity of innescate a domino effect among thousands of GLAMs.
With this presentation I aim at convincing Wikimedia chapters and active WikiGLAM contributors to focus on grant-makers as key stakeholders in WikiGLAM projects. More specifically the presentation aims at highlights
Why grant-makers are key stakeholders of WikiGLAM projects.
How grant-makers can produce a determinant impact on the Wikimedia projects (and why they should be interested).
Which grant-makers are already involved in contributing to the Wikimedia projects.
