Wikimedia Community Arusha/Feminism and Folklore
This is a combined proposal for Feminism and Folklore and WikiForHumanRights 2022. Feminism and Folklore is an international writing contest organized at Wikipedia annually which we will run in the month of March to document folk cultures and women in folklore in different regions of the world on Wikipedia. The aim of the #WikiForHumanRight campaign is to make sure that everyone has access to neutral, fact-based, and current information around our Right to Healthy Environment whereas we will contribute content in Wikimedia projects related to the theme in the month of April.
