On the occasion of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science (11 February), the UAB Research Park is joining an initiative coordinated by the Barcelona Biomedical Research Park (PRBB), to which we would like to invite you to participate.
It is a Wikimarathon, organised together with the Espai Viquidones de la Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF) and Amical Wikimedia, which will be held in a hybrid format (at the PRBB itself and via Zoom) on Tuesday 10 February, from 5pm to 7.30pm.
The aim is to close the gender gap on Wikipedia and to champion and raise the visibility of women scientists. We will do this by editing on the platform, creating, translating or improving pages about women's contributions to science.
The Wikimarathon is open to everyone, no prior experience is necessary – we will have the support of expert staff – and everyone can edit in their preferred language and for as long as they wish. You can register at https://bit.ly/ViquidonesPRBB2026.
The session will be on Tuesday, 10 February, from 17:00 to 19:30, and will be hybrid:
- In person: Marie Curie Room at the PRBB
- Online: https://bit.ly/ZOOMViquidonesPRBB2026
We encourage you to take part and do your bit to close the existing gender gap on Wikipedia. Let's work together for a more diverse scientific community!
