Telling your program stories - all programs

edit

Please tell the story of each of your programs included in your proposal. This is your chance to tell your story by using any additional metrics (beyond global metrics) that are relevant to your context, beyond the global metrics above. You should be reporting against the targets you set at the beginning of the year throughout the year. We have provided a template here below for you to report against your targets, but you are welcome to include this information in another way. Also, if you decided not to do a program that was included in your proposal or added a program not in the proposal, please explain this change. More resources for storytelling are at the end of this form. Here are some ways to tell your story.

  • We encourage you to share your successes and failures and what you are learning. Please also share why are these successes, failures, or learnings are important in your context. Reference learning patterns or other documentation.
  • Make clear connections between your offline activities and online results, as applicable. For example, explain how your education program activities is leading to quality content on Wikipedia.
  • We encourage you to tell your story in different ways by using videos, sound files, images (photos and infographics, e.g.), compelling quotes, and by linking directly to work you produce. You may highlight outcomes, learning, or metrics this way.
  • We encourage you to continue using dashboards, progress bars, and scorecards that you have used to illustrate your progress in the past, and to report consistently over time.
  • You are welcome to use the table below to report on any metrics or measures relevant to your program. These may or may not include the global metrics you put in the overview section above. You can also share your progress in another way if you do not find a table like this useful.

Cultivating sustainable institutional partnerships has been an ongoing activity at CIS-A2K since its inception. These institutional partnerships provide both to the Wikimedia Projects and A2K program opportunity to reach a large number of new readers who can then be later inducted as Wikimedia project editors. Partnering with these institutions (educational, development and government affiliated) offers us certain amount of credibility and resources to work with. In the Indian context where the reach of Wikimedia projects is not as high as the Western countries, Wikipedia is seen with suspicion and there is very little knowledge about other Wikimedia projects.

By partnering with Educational Institutions we stand to gain at two levels: Increasing Reach and Inducting New Editors. A2K involves community members while cultivating these partnerships so as to address the questions of quality and adherence to the 5 pillars of Wikipedia. A2K's strategy with Government Organisations is to be able to utilise facilities and in-kind support for organising edit-a-thons, meet-up and other workshops. A2K team has been able to leverage the work done by CIS and cultivate relationships amongst developmental organisations across India. Our association with Breakthrough India an organisation working in the areas of Women Rights, Gender sensitisation resulted in 12 edit-a-thons over a period of time across 5 languages.

Institutional partnerships have come to be recognised as a crucial element for the advancement of Wikimedia Projects in India. This fact can be confirmed by the discussions held during community meet-up and discussions. CIS-A2K has received support from the community members in identifying potential partners across it's Focus Language Areas.
