Wiki Tours North Benin 2
About
editThe project Wiki Tours North Benin 2 aims to involve middle school students in northern Benin in the projects of the Wikimedia Foundation. Indeed, the activities on the projects of the wikimedia foundation are concentrated for the most part in the south of Benin, notably in Cotonou and Abomey-Calavi. The goal of this Wiki Tours is to sensitize the other localities of Benin more precisely those of the north of the country to the projects of the foundation. This project will essentially consist in traveling to three localities in Benin: Djougou, Malanville and Kandi and to make discover Wikipedia and its associated projects to secondary students in this part of the country.
Main objective
editThe main objective of this project is to increase the wikimedia community in Benin. Thus, this Wiki tours will be the most adequate way to convince other people, especially young students from colleges in areas where the foundation's projects are unknown. This Wiki Tours 2 will be the ideal moment to show them that they can be more than consumers but also contributors, they who use throughout the year Wikipedia in their school research.
