2017 Asia report summary
In December 2017, Nichole Saad, Education Program Manager at the Wikimedia Foundation, conducted site visits in three countries in Asia to better understand the context of implementing education programs at the school level and how the WMF can best support these kinds of programmatic activities. Nepal, India, and Taiwan, benefited from institutional visits, focus group discussions with educators, and workshops for local Wikimedians.

The following report provides an overview of why this trip took place, the activities that happened, the impact of those activities, and what will happen going forward.
