CIS-A2K/Events/She Leads

This year CIS-A2K has started an initiative or a program She Leads to offer assistance to Indian Wikimedians interested in participating in activities throughout the month of March. Within the Wikimedia community, March month is the one of the busiest month for Wikimedians to organize initiatives during this period. Historically, A2K has led numerous activities focused on enriching content related to women. In 2024, A2K is encouraging community members, especially female Wikimedians, to orchestrate activities tailored to their language communities.

Purpose

The aim of this support initiative is to empower female Wikimedians and foster women's leadership within the Indian community. It's not just a one-time support, but rather an ongoing effort to offer a platform for them to design and implement activities aligned with their goals and aspirations. By encouraging their participation and providing resources, we aim to cultivate a more inclusive and diverse Wikimedia community.
