keeping wikimedia chapter abreast with local free culture counterparts: keynote
DESCRIPTION
Promoting free culture in their own jurisdictions is a designated mission of Wikimedia chapters, which is almost impossible to achieve without collaborating with the local Free Culture groups. Some places, for example Hong Kong, Germany Australia and Israel, are lucky to have some rather developed communities for the Free culture Movement. But in the past, Wikimedians may be strangers to local free culture counterparts, as the situation in Hong Kong. So we would like to share the experience we have on turning stranger to our supports and sponsors in free-culture circles, and also explore more possible models and methods to keep up the momentum of such collaboration.TRANSCRIPT
