Thanks for yesterday, sir

Yesterday, I feel truly elated that I'm a fellow in this ongoing fellowship. The visit was transformative, enlightening and educative.

Thanks for bringing this initiative to life

[Amb.Olushola Olaniyan 🇳🇬 @oluwanishola73]

Yesterday, as part of the ongoing #Wikiheritage initiative organised by @WikimediaNG in collaboration with @LASRABofficial and @yilfellowship, the fellows visited the archival institutions to get a first feel for the agency. During the visit, they were given a tour of the facility, allowing them to discuss other areas of collaboration with the DG.

[Sideeq Abubakar Galadima 👑🇳🇬 @EL_BAKRY001]

@aboderinlekaino @keshinro_se Congratulations, brother!
That's an incredible feat. Keep it up! However, be mindful of your tone when discussing especially on social media. Potential employers might see this, and it could impact your job prospects

WIKIMEDIA NIGERIA ONBOARDS 12 FELLOWS FOR THE INAUGURAL EDITION OF WIKIHERITAGE FELLOWSHIP IN LAGOS STATE

Lagos, Nigeria – July 18, 2025

The WikiHeritage Initiative, a 12-week hybrid sessions, is designed to empower Nigerian youth and transform public archival materials into freely accessible digital content. The inaugural edition is organised by Wikimedia UG Nigeria (registered as Wikimedia Nigeria Foundation) in collaboration with a strategic partnership with Fellowship and an archival Institutions in Nigeria.

The initiative, which aims to be replicated nationwide through collaboration with mission-aligned archival institutions, begins in Lagos State with the onboarding of 12 successful fellows (across diverse disciplines), selected from over 500 applicants, on July 21, 2025. The inaugural edition is a collaboration between Wikimedia User Group Nigeria, the Young Innovation Leaders (YIL) Institution, and the Lagos State Records and Archives Bureau (LASRAB).

The WikiHeritage Fellowship is designed to equip young Nigerians with hands-on experience in digitisation, archival documentation, and open knowledge sharing. The pilot phase focuses on historical records housed at LASRAB, with plans to expand the project to other state and national archives across Nigeria.

The Fellowship will address the longstanding challenge of making pre-Internet public materials, including handwritten letters, typewritten reports, historical maps, photographs, and government records, accessible online. These documents, often preserved in paper or microfilm formats and housed in archives or libraries, remain largely invisible to the digital public, affecting both national representation and research quality.

The project will not only aim to digitise but also democratise access to Nigeria's story, which still sits on dusty shelves and is undocumented online, and make it available for research and educational purposes, thereby improving visibility and demystifying some of the incorrect narratives about the country.

Fellowship Highlights
* Comprehensive Training in leadership values, mentoring skills, archival ethics, digitisation standards, and content curation
* Cross-functional Teams comprising content curators, digital archivists, and Wikipedia contributors
Partnerships with LASRAB and YIL for institutional support and leadership development
* Open Licensing (CC BY-SA 4.0) to ensure public reuse and academic access
* Cross-platform Publishing on Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, Wikidata, and Wikisource
