The main activities of the project are:

  • Create and enhance content on Africa's climate.
  • Translate existing articles in French, English and local languages on Wikipedia ;
  • Speak about the importance of the Africa Environment project at major meetings (conference, debate, training...);
  • Initiate students in environmental and climate sciences to contribute to Wikipedia, Wikidata, and Wikimedia commons;
  • Collect data on Burundi's climate and environment from national specialized institutions;
  • Organize information conferences and contribution workshops.
