How Can We Fix This?● Engagement through edit-a-thons, training opportunities and Wikiprojects
like Women in Red. ● Ideal Partners Are: Nonprofits*, colleges/universities, government entities
and beyond
*75% of nonprofit employees are female. These nonprofits include educational, scientific and literary
organizations. It’s time to engage these ‘gatekeepers’.
