5th Edition of Africa Wiki Challenge to be launched by Open Foundation West Africa
The 5th edition of the Africa Wiki Challenge (AWC) writing contest is set to be launched by Open Foundation West Africa, a tech-based soft skills organization and network of communities committed to digitally representing and preserving African culture.
The Africa Wiki Challenge (AWC) is aimed at addressing the underrepresentation of African content online by leveraging Wikipedia and its sister projects.
Each year, the contest theme aligns with the African Union’s theme.
The theme for this year’s writing contest is: ‘Reclaiming Our Narrative: Justice for Africans and the Diaspora through Reparations’.
The competition is open to Africans and people of African descent. Participants are encouraged to create new articles or enhance existing ones related to African content, centering on the theme.
Articles should focus on justice, reparations, and historical redress for Africa and the diaspora. Participants are also encouraged to upload images and media to Wikimedia Commons to further enrich African content online.
Winners of the contest will receive fantastic prizes for their contributions.
Prizes for the Africa Wiki Challenge 2025 include:
Winner: GHS 10,000
1st Runner up: GHS 6,000
2nd Runner up: GHS 3,500
