Herstory of Deaf Women Wikipedia Editing Workshop

Gallaudet University

Join us for the Herstory of Deaf Women Wikipedia Editing Workshop hosted by the Division of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion and the GSR 300 and PHI 395 Feminism class with support from Wikimedia DC.

With the help of experienced Wikipedians, attendees will learn to edit Wikipedia and improve or create Wikipedia articles related to Deaf Women in history, drawing on the Gallaudet University Library's free and extensive online collections as source materials. No editing experience is necessary.

Laptops are required. Please bring your own. Wikimedia has two laptops to loan. Reserve one by emailing info@wikimediadc.org.

This event is free and open to the public, but space is limited, so register today. Lunch will be provided.
