Partnership interactions

See below for all partnership interactions and enquiries. The following Wikimedia in the curriculum projects took place in Semester Two:

• Korean Studies MSc and East Asian Studies MSc - Dr. Youngmi Kim, 13 February 2026.
• Discussions on co-designing a new assignment with Niki Pryde for Anthropology undergraduate students.

The next step is for the new Assistant Wikimedian in Residence, Anna Judelson, to send out an email to different schools and geographical locations of the University to secure invites for presentations and training workshops by the residency in order to collaborate with subject areas that have not previously engaged with the residency. We have already secured an invite to present at the College of Medicine's Usher Symposium on 16 June from this approach so will look to engage the remaining two colleges in a similar approach.

Strategic Aim 3

Increase free, verified and open access to knowledge and information about the climate crisis and other important topics, by delivering impactful projects with relevant partners, and advocating for the release of content.
