The summit was an action-oriented event where several university directors and deans participated to connect, act and inspire at the luxurious and eco-friendly Azam Campus. Spoken Wikipedia was the central focus; the ultimate aim is its implementation and the dissemination of ideas that would reach every corner of the country. Along with the university directors, the summit invites people with the potential to run or administer projects who have a constructive bent to promote and to come up with ideas for the events. Three separate "tracks" were be devised for the summit, where a brainstorming session took place and an agenda formulated for the action plan.
Being the free and open knowledge base that Wikipedia is, there are ample opportunities and methods of usage for every individual to immensely benefit from. India, as a nation, can be perceived by the global community and in return, our culture and lifestyle can be better appreciated and understood through this large platform. Through the summit, Wikipedia Club Pune strives to meet these ends, while enabling them to become more familiar with Wikipedia and all that it has to offer. The summit, which took place in the second week of January 2013, was be a coming together of some of the best minds to bring about change. Wikipedia Club Pune acted as a catalyst in bringing to reality the ideas put forward during the event, which we collectively formulated into a plan at the end of the summit. |
