Fiona
Feminist lawyer and activist from Uganda. I am the campaign coordinator for the #VisibleWikiWomen Campaign on Wikimedia Commons; bringing images of black, brown, queer, indigenous, and trans binary folks from the global majority to commons and the broader internet.
Contributing to closing gender gaps within open knowledge and interrogating through conversation and collaboration why those gaps exist.
Session
The #VisibleWikiWomen photo booth at Wikimania will document the experience of participants, especially from the Global majority. By uploading their images to Wikimedia Commons, they continue to contribute to the online tapestry of communities and further our efforts to bring the missing plurality of race, gender, sexuality, and bodies online, so that the internet reflects the full depth and breadth of humanity. It will also discuss and embody care and consent practices in photo-taking and sharing, as well as reflections on visibility and invisibility online among womxn and queer folks.
