Wikimedia Tunisie/Report 2023
The Wikimedia Community User Group Tunisia has actively participated in various events and programs during the last year.
This report offers a comprehensive overview of the activities undertaken by the user group, encompassing participation in international conferences, the organization of local events, workshops, community gatherings, and others activities.
Our user group has successfully advanced efforts to preserve cultural heritage and history while championing gender equality. Through dedicated work, we managed to attract new young users to actively contribute about local figures through various projects, and we continued the work done in narrowing the gender gap concerning Tunisian figures represented on Wikipedia.
