'''Held June 16, 2016 at the Paris Hotel in Nairobi, Kenya.''' | |||
==Strathmore University Event== | The overarching aim was to translate and contribute articles through the one day Edit-a-thon session. The Edit-a-thon managed to attract 16 participants (most of whom had attended the previous ICANNWiki workshop that was held earlier on 6<sup>th</sup> June). | ||
Participants worked on a minimum of at-least 5 articles each (a total of 100 article stubs for the day were completed). | |||
=== Next Steps === | |||
Following the successful edit-a-thon event, the facilitators will be working on a glossary of terms to be translated at a possible 3<sup>rd</sup> edit-a-thon session ahead of the Tanzania capacity building workshop. | |||
Strathmore University (Nairobi) has expressed interest in hosting the events for a period of 6-12 months i.e. 1 workshop per month (for their university students). | |||
The university will offer a room that can accommodate 30-50 participants, with free Wi-Fi, and an aide/resource person. ICANNWiki's role will be to facilitate the edit-a-thon as well as cater for meals/refreshments at affordable student rates (at the students’ caféteria). | |||
