A stakeholder workshop (D 3.5) coordinated by members of all WPs from the COST Action and Wikimedia CH that brings together the local community of digital activists (demosceners, wikipedians, etc.) for an Edit-a-thon (collective editing of relevant Wikipedia entries) on GRADE-related pages such as women and minorities in digital cultures. This event will disseminate some of the findings of the action by adding entries or integrating existing ones with the help of the local grassroots community. The Edit-a-thon will be organized over two days. The target audience are local grassroots communities and digital activists.

What is COST?

European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) is a funding agency for research and innovation networks. Our Actions help connect research initiatives across Europe and enable scientists to grow their ideas by sharing them with their peers. This boosts their research, career and innovation.

COST Action CA21141

COST Action CA21141 seeks to foster a better understanding of the role of grassroots digital movements related to creative computing across Europe and to develop an integrated approach to its study.

GRADE focuses on user communities, their interaction with state and European-level policies, and the preservation of digital cultural heritage.
