Rising Voices
Rising Voices is the digital inclusion arm of Global Voices. Rising Voices has collaborated with numerous Wikimedia affiliates over the years. It has also received a research grant to explore the opportunities and challenges for Wikipedia projects in Latin American Indigenous languages. In addition, it serves as a Stakeholder on the Wikimedia Language Diversity Hub. RV also was a recipient of a Wikimedia Foundation Knowledge Equity Fund grant.
Session
What happens when two like-minded movements come together for a common goal? In this session, we’ll explore how Rising Voices/Global Voices have been collaborating with members of the Wikimedia movement, who are also supporting Indigenous, minority, and low-resource language communities in Latin America, Asia, Africa and Europe as they create knowledge in their own languages.
