Programs
Institutional partnerships and public editathons
During the 2021–22 fiscal year, Wikimedia DC program activity focused in a single principal program area, institutional partnership.
Consistent with past program results, collaborative editing events, such as edit-a-thons and editing workshops, comprised the bulk of our institutional partnership program activity. Over the course of the fiscal year, Wikimedia DC supported a total of 30 events in partnership with 22 institutional partners, which included a broad spectrum of cultural, academic, and government institutions, non-governmental organizations, and other groups:
