Dear Community,
As we announced during December,[1] this year’s WikiForHumanRights campaign will be arriving for Earth Day this year: April 15-May 15. The theme is “Right to a Healthy Environment” -- connecting the 20th Birthday “Human” theme with the global conversations about COVID-19, environmental crisis, like climate change, and human rights.You can learn more about the theme at our under-development home page. [2]
The campaign will have two parts: a challenge, like the WikiGap Challenge, and decentralized digital and in-person events (where COVID-19 risk assessments allow).
We need your help organizing the decentralized events -- and will be supporting development of activities through mentoring and rapid grants.
Do you want to be part of organizing? The Campaigns Team at the Wikimedia Foundation invites you to:
-
the upcoming Wikimedians for Sustainable Development meeting on 21 February at 11:00am UTC [3] -
Our next virtual office hour on 25 February 2021 at 3:00pm UTC via zoom.[4]
If you are interested, but can’t attend the meeting: you can also join the Wikimedians for Sustainable Development communication channels for general updates [5] or the WikiForHumanRights telegram channel, where we will share more updates for organizers [6].
Please forward this information to movement organizers who you think will be interested.
Looking forward to talking with you soon!
Alex Stinson

Hello all,
We are excited for #WikiForHumanRights -- at the office hours and afterwards community groups throughout the movement have already connected with us about organizing. This year we are going to focus on the "right to a healthy environment" and we need your help!
What can you do?
If you like to organize an event, we have created a list of ideas at: https://w.wiki/33kh. You can also learn more about kinds of activities from our last office hour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_QEE60hcFk Keep in mind that we are support rapid grants to help you go further by means of financial support rapid grants will be available through April 15 -- please apply any time during that window through the application process.
If you are organizing an event, please add it to the table at: https://w.wiki/35gK
We will also have a content-writing challenge with prizes from April 15 - May 15 you can learn more about the challenge and sign up for the challenge at: https://w.wiki/35gE
We also have developed a draft list of articles to be created or enriched with UN Human Rights: https://w.wiki/33ki . We hope these inspire you to think about what your community could do to fill the gaps on your wikis about the right to healthy environment: this could include topics related to human rights, climate or environmental justice, communities impacted by environmental health issues, or similar.
We encourage working on Wikipedia and on sister projects: Commons, Wikidata, Wiktionary ... etc.
If you have a question, you can send us an email (Alex Stinson: [email protected], Michel Bakni: [email protected]), or you can attend the support and mentoring meeting we are organizing on Zoom on at 14:00 (GMT) 18 March 2021. [1]
