Wikimedia Community Ireland's Podcast
At Wikimedia Community Ireland, we aim to assist and inspire people to contribute educational, cultural, and historical content to the public domain or under licenses that allow free use, distribution, and modification. We collaborate with institutions to make their collections more accessible and work towards preserving Ireland's heritage.
Established in 2014, we are a non-profit, volunteer-driven organization committed to using and promoting free and open-source information resources. Our goal is to safeguard and promote the Irish language while encouraging the release of materials in both English and Gaeilge.
We're an affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation in Ireland, dedicated to fostering the creation, promotion, and sharing of free knowledge. Our mission is to cultivate a culture of openness throughout Ireland, ensuring that the rich diversity of our creativity and knowledge is globally accessible without barriers.
Stay tuned as we explore fascinating topics related to our mission and the vibrant world of Wikimedia Community Ireland. Let's dive into the realm of free knowledge together!
