Although women and non-binary persons are under-represented in ocean sciences, their accomplishments are even less represented, in both print media and online. Help us bridge this digital gender gap in ocean sciences!
Ingenium – Canada’s Museums of Science and Innovation – is partnering with the Fisheries and Oceans Canada, and the Canadian Commission for UNESCO for a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon on Saturday, February 22 at 10 AM EST.
This is a hybrid event that will take place both in person at the Ingenium Centre in Ottawa, Canada, and virtually. Registration is required for either option.
Join us on February 22nd (10:00 EST) to edit, add, or translate Wikipedia entries for women and non-binary individuals in ocean science. We’ll provide you with a crash course on Wikipedia editing, and in turn, we’re asking you to edit for a good cause.
