And in order to engage new target groups (young people, activists, women*, queer people) in the world of Wikipedia. More than 280 people have participated in these camps and more than 1.325 articles have been written, improved and translated. This years edition is co-organised by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nomorewar_collective\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>No More War<\/strong><\/a>\u2013 an antimilitarist collective within Service Civil International (SCI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the training<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In 2026, we are dedicating Wikipedia for Peace to genocide prevention.<\/strong> Genocide is not just something decided by courts or something from the past \u2013 we need to actively work to prevent it. Genocide is happening on a daily basis around us. Whether it\u2019s in Gaza, Artsakh, Balochistan, Darfur, Ukraine or Eastern Congo \u2013 militarized violence, forced displacement and suppression of identity against specific groups of people are present more than ever. <strong>How can we, as young people and members of civil society, prevent genocide in the present and future? One of the many things we can work on is improving Wikipedia togehter\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practicalities<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Who can participate? <\/strong>Living in Namibia, Palestine, Switzerland or Poland and being between 18 and 30!
