The Faculty of Philosophy and Literature (Facultad de Filosofía y Letras) at UNAM participates in the Wikipedia Education Program.

Wikimedia Mexico pre chapter began talks about collaboration in March of 2011 with the Academic Secretary of the Faculty of Philosophy and Literature of the National Authonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).

In December of 2011, the Club Wikipedia Filosofía y Letras UNAM student organization was founded and was lead by Pablo Miranda Quevedo and Ernesto Priani. We did workshops and talks about Wikipedia and Wikimedia projects with the alumni.

In Mexico, everybody who wants to get a higher education must complete a requirement of "social service", a period of six months doing professional practices in a government institution or a non-profit association. Wikimedia Mexico and the Faculty of Literature and Philosophy achieved that the participation in Wikimedia projects is recognized as social service. Near 12 students of history and philosophy have obtained the certificate of social service writing and improving Spanish Wikipedia.

Within this project, Wikimedia México help to the group of the Dr. Alberto Betancourt Posada, teacher of the faculty, in the development and publishing of the Diccionario de Hermenéutica Social, presented in June 2013 in Mexico City. Some parts of the dictionary was extracted to Spanish Wikipedia.

Following the model developed by Wikimedia Argentina, Wikimedia México's Carmen Alcázar and Alan Lazalde works among with Francisco Barrón and Pablo Miranda in the construction of a DIY scanner, for the developing of project with the incunabula of Samuel Ramos Library, Wikimedia Commons and Wikisource. The project is still in analysis by the authorities and legal departments of UNAM.

Since September 2013, the faculty and Wikimedia México began a reorganization of the Wikimedia initiative. We are developing of the pilot of the Wikimedia México Education Program, with the objective of get a model and tools adapted to the local needs and easily replicable. This projects will be the participation of pedagogy students in the design of the program and five teachers with their groups as a pilot phase. And we are involving more students to the social service option, continuing the implementation of a successful program and the possibility of expanding to another faculties.
