Wikipedia is the world’s largest online user-generated encyclopedia. But there is great imbalance on Wikipedia, like in society at large. Ninety per cent of those who add content are men and there are more than four times as many articles about men as about women. We want to help change this.

We started on 8 March by launching the first series of profiles of Somali women. Now we want to expand on this and profile even more of the remarkable women making a difference in all walks of Somali life. Please suggest who you think should be profiled on Wikipedia? Which remarkable women would you like us to know more about? Please fill this form or send your suggestions to open4youth@gmail.com

Deadline: 1st October 2018.
