What is the Community Conference?

The Community Conference was run by Wikimedia Australia to showcase some of the exciting work that has been happening across the country, and to give our community the opportunity to contribute to the next stage of planning ongoing collaborations, what WikiClubs are doing, Wikimedia Australia's future directions, how we can better engage with each other, our region: ESEAP (the East, Southeast Asia, and Pacific), and the wider Wikimedia movement.

Programme

Community members were encouraged to suggest areas of interest and volunteer to present. Five lightning talks were presented, and three workshops.

Ingrid is now the Indigenous project co-ordinator for the City of Canning, Western Australia. From her experience in working with Wikimedia Australia she invited WMAU to collaborate with the City of Canning on a digital heritage project. She will share her insights on these projects and how to engage and share in a respectful way with Indigenous knowledge.
