EQUIwikiPEDIA (working title)
An initiative to create an online search tool, together with the Wikimedia Foundation, for equality and active change making within academia. Gender and race bias is a well-known problem within humanities as well as other fields of higher education.
30 October - 3 November 2017, a workshop at RCA will be running to create a search tool for accessing web-based free-content, featuring women, people of colour, differently abled/ people with disability, non-western origin, and LGBTQIA+ exclusively. The aim is to have a positive effect on equality in representation by making it easier to find a wider representation of perspectives besides well established and overrepresented cannons, on any topic or search word.
