Notre équipe

Florence Devouard et Isla Haddow-Flood ont conçu Wiki Loves Women en 2015 et l’ont développé en collaboration avec Brigitte Doellgast au Goethe-Institut. Il a été lancé en 2016 avec des activités de renforcement de la communauté dans 4 pays africains et 2 campagnes en ligne. Depuis lors, la communauté se développe dans 12 pays, dirigée par des individus et des groupes d’utilisateurs Wikimedia qui mènent des activités communautaires locales en partenariat avec plus de 78 organisations. Le projet offre une visibilité et un contenu supplémentaires par le biais d’au moins deux campagnes en ligne par an. En 2021, Wiki Loves Women a eu le plaisir d’accueillir Candy Tricia Khohliwe dans l’équipe en tant qu’assistante administrative. En 2022, trois nouveaux membres ont rejoint l’équipe : Afek Ben Chahed en tant que facilitatrice communautaire, Nonny Nthlala en tant que soutien administratif et Rachel Zadok en tant que responsable de la communication.
