New partnership with Criola and its first batch

On July 10, 2024, the Wiki Movimento Brasil User Group entered into a GLAM-Wiki partnership with the NGO Criola. This civil society organization, located in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, has been working for 30 years to combat racism and fight for women's rights.

The WikiCriola Project aims to amplify and expand the voices of Black cis and trans women in the fields of new technologies and racial equity. Through a series of videos and transcriptions produced by nano influencers from all over Brazil, the stories of several notable women will be shared, promoting open access and the democratization of knowledge.

The project was funded by the Wikimedia Foundation and supported by Wiki Movimento Brasil User Group for its availability on Wikimedia Commons. This has resulted in the upload of 13 videos and 59 transcriptions to date, as the one where Gabriela Feitosa Menezes interviewed "ABAYOMI Juristas Negras" (ABAYOMI Black Jurists), presented below:

We will also support the holding of an edit-a-thon on August 16th and 23rd to create Wikipedia articles about the notable women researched in the context of the project.
