Introductory statement / Application summary. This section to be translated. (150 word maximum)	Saya pernah bertugas sebagai mentor, fasilitator, dan pemimpin komunitas dan juga memberikan dukungan teknis kepada beberapa komunitas dan relawan Wikimedia yang kurang terwakili khususnya di Afrika. Saya tidak saba untuk membantu komunitas dan kontributor lain yang kurang terwakili di seluruh dunia. Sejak beberapa bulan yang lalu, fokus utama saya adalah untuk menempatkan alat dan proyek Wikimedia untuk menyelesaikan beberapa isu mendesak yang terkait dengan komunitas yang kurang terwakili secara global. Salah satu tujuan saya adalah untuk bekerjasama dengan anggota organisasi mitra dan komunitas Wikimedia untuk menghasilkan alat yang lebih baik untuk mendukung pengetahuan bebas dalam bahasa-bahasa di seluruh proyek Wikimedia dan memberikan solusi atas isu global Wikimedia. Berdasarkan pengalaman lalu saya dalam kebijakan publik, saya ingin berkontribusi dalam pelaksanaan kebijakan yang selaras dengan pelaksanaan Strategi Gerakan dan Dewan Global untuk memastikan kesetaraan bagi semua.

Worked with Open Foundation West Africa as the Technical and Programs Officer whereby I co-organized events and projects by providing Technical Support to the Open Foundation West Africa and its community. Established a successful African technical community for the African Wikimedia Developers Project which is in the process of re-branding the project to be named the African Wikimedia Technical Community.

Pengalaman di dunia nyata. Kami sangat tertarik untuk membaca tentang pengalaman hidup di wilayah Afrika, Asia Selatan, Asia Timur , Asia Tenggara & Pasifik, serta Amerika Latin & Karibia. Kami percaya bahwa pengalaman di wilayah ini dapat membantu memperluas kemampuan Dewan untuk memenuhi tujuan Strategi Gerakan dalam mencapai partisipasi yang lebih adil, meskipun kami menyadari bahwa pengalaman lain juga dapat memberikan kontribusi yang bersifat penting. (maksimal 250 kata)	I am a Ghanaian Wikimedian, born, raised, working and currently living in Ghana in the African Region. One of my experiences is about "Open the Knowledge." For many years, foreign media and tourists have provided insufficient content about Africa to the world, which paints a negative picture of the African region. So far I have seen Wiki-in-Africa and some other African affiliates of the Wikimedia Foundation putting in some work with regards to the Open Knowledge initiative in order to raise awareness of the biases, under-representation, and inequities in our movement that continue to close Wikimedia projects to much of the world’s people and knowledge. I do have the motive of collaborating with African Wikimedians to change the narrative or perception when it comes to the African Continent as a whole.
Kefasihan budaya dan bahasa dari wilayah dan bahasa tambahan selain wilayah dan bahasa asli Anda. Kesadaran antarbudaya dapat membantu membangun "jembatan" dalam komunitas kita yang memiliki beragam budaya. (maksimal 250 kata)	I grew up learning multiple languages in school and in my local community due to the diverse people I stayed with and schooled with. I was able to learn how to read and write some languages such as Afrikaans, Asante Twi, Fanti, Akan, Akuapem Twi, English and some basic French and Spanish. I have worked on multiple contractual translation jobs remotely and voluntary. Some of the organisations I have done translations for are; RightsCon and the Ghana Bible Society. Aside from my external translation jobs, I have contributed massively when it comes to translating pages on Wikimedia projects, tools and other softwares. I am currently in the process of creating a translation tool to help contributors in Africa to translate Wikimedia Projects from English into their local languages specifically for Afrikaans, Twi, Akan, Ewe, Dagbani, Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, and Swahili. One of my translation projects was for the Kiwix Andriod app on playstore. I am currently also collaborating with some Nigerian Wikimedians to come up with a tool and a Wikimedia Education Program to help the blind and visually impaired people to be able to read and contribute to Wikimedia Projects. Through my previous Wikimedia Projects and events, I have collaborated and worked with people from diverse backgrounds based on countries, ethnicities, religions and tribes to have successful events and projects. Which has contributed a lot to my life in terms of knowledge.
Pengalaman sebagai aktivis yang menciptakan ruang yang aman dan kolaboratif untuk semua dan/atau pengalaman dalam situasi atau konteks penyensoran, represi, atau serangan lain terhadap hak asasi manusia. (maksimal 250 kata)	As a citizen of the global village, I am an advocate for human rights, specifically in the area of silent threats against the safety of journalists around the world with regard to freedom of expression and media development. In recent years, I have advocated with UNESCO to help protect the rights of journalists around the world and to provide safe spaces for them. Looking at the global and regional killings of journalists around the world from 2016 to 2020, the impunity of crimes against journalists and other attacks and threats, such as enforced disappearance, kidnapping, and arbitrary detention, is what motivates me to advocate for the human rights of journalists not only in Africa but the world at large.
Pengalaman sehubungan dengan (atau sebagai anggota, sejauh Anda memilih untuk berbagi) kelompok yang telah menghadapi diskriminasi historis dan kurang terwakili dalam struktur kekuasaan (termasuk namun tidak terbatas pada kasta, ras, etnis, warna kulit, asal kebangsaan, kebangsaan , identitas gender, ekspresi gender, orientasi seksual, usia, agama, bahasa, budaya, pendidikan, kemampuan, pendapatan dan lingkungan). (maksimal 250 kata)	I do come from a smaller ethnic group in Ghana, which is underrepresented when it comes to power and influence. In terms of population, we are about 1.4% of the total population of Ghana. I would prefer not to share further details at the moment.
