You may be interested in WikiEdu

Hi Curlywurly, I know we discussed (at the recent #editforequity STEM edit-a-thon) getting university students to contribute to Wikipedia as part of their course work. If you want to explore this further you may want to have a look at this resource. WikiEdu is an American non profit that builds connections between universities and Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects in the United States and Canada. I'm sure if you reach out to them they would be able to offer you guidance. Hope this is of some use. --Ambrosia10 (talk) 22:25, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
