[https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2026 Wiki Loves Earth] Photowalk in [https://ca.wikimedia.org/wiki/Moncton_WikiClub Moncton] is an in-person community event designed to introduce participants to Wikimedia Commons and guide them through the process of contributing high-quality images to free knowledge platforms. During the event, participants will learn about Wikimedia Commons, photo licensing, image uploads, and how to write clear and detailed descriptions that make images more useful and discoverable.

Participants will visit and photograph natural areas in and around Moncton, including Hopewell park, Irishtown Nature Park, Centennial Park, Mapleton Park, and Mill Creek Nature Park. The photowalk will focus on capturing eligible Wiki Loves Earth subjects, including landscapes such as forests, wetlands, lakes, trails, and notable trees, as well as macro and close-up images of animals, birds, insects, plants, fungi, and other natural subjects.

Following the photowalk, participants will upload their images to Wikimedia Commons and apply the skills learned during the training session. Each participant will receive a Certificate of Participation in recognition of their contribution. To encourage both quality and completeness, awards will be issued to the best-quality photos uploaded and participant who uploads the highest number of quality photos with detailed descriptions.

This activity aims to increase awareness of Wikimedia Commons, develop photography and documentation skills, strengthen local Wikimedia engagement, and contribute freely licensed images of Moncton's natural heritage for use across Wikimedia projects and beyond.

=== Activity Report ===
The [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2026_in_Moncton Wiki Loves Earth 2026 Photowalk in Moncton] was an hybrid community activity organized by the [https://ca.wikimedia.org/wiki/Moncton_WikiClub Moncton WikiClub] to introduce participants to Wikimedia Commons and encourage them to document and contribute freely licensed images of local natural heritage. The activity combined outdoor photography, practical training, community engagement, and hands-on contribution to Wikimedia Commons.

A total of 11 people registered through the event page. The activity included three in-person photowalks across different natural areas in and around Moncton, as well as three online training sessions and a final celebration party. The photowalks provided participants with an opportunity to explore local natural spaces while learning how to identify, photograph, document, license, and upload images to Wikimedia Commons.

Participants visited and photographed natural areas including Irishtown Nature Park, Hopewell Rocks, Mapleton Park, and Mill Creek Nature Park. The photowalks focused on capturing eligible Wiki Loves Earth subjects, including forests, wetlands, lakes, trails, notable trees, animals, birds, insects, plants, fungi, and other natural subjects.

Participants were also supported through three online training sessions, including a pre-recorded session that could be watched at their convenience. The training covered Wikimedia Commons, image licensing, uploading photographs, categorization, and writing clear and detailed descriptions that make images more useful and discoverable.

Following the photowalks, participants uploaded their photographs to Wikimedia Commons and applied the skills they learned during the training sessions. The main categories used for the uploads were Nature of Moncton, Nature of New Brunswick, and Wiki Loves Earth 2026 in Moncton.

The campaign resulted in [https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/WMCA/WikiLoves_Earth_in_Moncton_2026/uploads 235 images] being uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. A jury of three members from Nigeria reviewed the submitted images through three rounds of review. Four participants whose images were selected as the winning entries received gift cards based on their final ranking. An additional gift card was awarded to the participant who attended all three photowalks, as an incentive for sustained participation.

'''Feedback from Participants'''

* '''Experience Organizing the Activity''': The activity provided a positive opportunity to engage a new local community around Wikimedia Commons, nature documentation, photography, and open knowledge. Participants appreciated the combination of outdoor photowalks and online training, which allowed them to learn about Wikimedia Commons while exploring natural areas in and around Moncton.
:Participants were particularly motivated by the opportunity to meet new people, learn photography and Wikimedia Commons skills, contribute to an open knowledge platform, and document local natural heritage. Some participants also expressed interest in continuing their involvement with the WikiClub beyond the campaign.
:From the organiser's perspective, the campaign also provided important learning around planning, coordination, community outreach, technical preparation, and the need for early alignment with national and international campaign structures.

* '''What Went Well &amp; What Could Be Improved'''
* '''What went well''': 
:The combination of in-person photowalks and online training created multiple opportunities for participants to learn, practise, and contribute.
:Participants were able to explore different natural environments and document a diverse range of plants, animals, landscapes, water bodies, trails, and other natural features.
:The activity attracted participants with diverse backgrounds and interests, including students, researchers, parents, photographers, volunteers, and people interested in open knowledge.
:The campaign generated 235 Wikimedia Commons uploads, including 204 images directly related to the campaign.
:The three-round jury process provided a structured approach to reviewing and selecting winning images.
:Gift cards provided a tangible form of recognition for winning contributions and sustained participation.
:The campaign helped increase awareness of Wikimedia Commons and provided an opportunity to introduce participants to free licensing, categorisation, and content contribution.
:Participants identified networking, learning, volunteering, and opportunities to contribute to the community as important motivations for continued participation.
* '''What could be improved''': 
:The WikiClub would benefit from a more consistent public presence, including a dedicated social media page and regular promotion of its activities.
:Future activities could establish partnerships with other local community organisations, such as Rotary Club Moncton, and participate in existing community events and volunteer opportunities to increase the club's visibility and diversify its membership.
:The club could make greater use of banners, posters, community noticeboards, and other physical outreach opportunities to reach people beyond existing Wikimedia networks.
:Collaboration with local micro-influencers could help increase awareness of the club and attract new participants to future activities.
:Participants suggested expanding recognition beyond prizes to include certificates of participation or recognition from Wikimedia Canada where appropriate.
:Participants also expressed interest in opportunities that connect active community members to leadership roles, professional networks, employment opportunities, scholarships, conferences, and recommendation letters.
:Future campaigns would benefit from earlier coordination with Wikimedia Canada and the international Wiki Loves Earth organising team to clarify eligibility, technical requirements, campaign setup, and promotional infrastructure before the campaign begins.
:A clearer national coordination pathway for Wiki Loves Earth in Canada would help local communities participate more effectively in future editions.
* '''Achievement of Intended Goals''' :The activity achieved its main goals of introducing participants to Wikimedia Commons, developing photography and contribution skills, documenting local natural heritage, and strengthening the WikiClub Moncton community. The campaign resulted in 204 images uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, while creating opportunities for learning, networking, and community engagement.

* Film Zone Inc. (FICFA)

Film Zone Inc. est un organisme culturel sans but lucratif qui se veut une référence en matière de promotion d’une diversité d'œuvres acadiennes et francophones, et en matière d'éducation cinématographique. Il se donne pour mission d’être la vitrine du cinéma francophone en Acadie et dans les provinces atlantiques tout en contribuant au développement de l’industrie.

Son pilier principal, le Festival international du cinéma francophone en Acadie (FICFA), est le plus grand festival consacré au cinéma francophone dans les provinces atlantiques, et est parmi les plus importants en Amérique du Nord. Organisé depuis 1987 à Moncton et Dieppe, il est la seule structure visant spécifiquement la promotion et la diffusion de ce contenu au N.-B.

Initialement conçu pour pallier l'absence de films en français dans les cinémas commerciaux, il demeure aujourd'hui la principale passerelle vers une offre filmique de qualité en français pour la communauté. Au fil des années, il s’est affirmé comme un carrefour reconnu pour la diffusion d'œuvres cinématographiques et en arts médiatiques de la francophonie canadienne et internationale, en plus de jouer un rôle rassembleur pour les professionnel·les de l’industrie audiovisuelle.

'''Proposed activity''': holding a monthly WikiClub meeting in Calgary, where users and newbies meet up and build community, help and teach each other new things, and connect with other institutions in Calgary.

We organized an event in June attended by 40 people, 20 of which have expressed interest in joining the WikiClub, 13 of which replied to a survey to shape the activities of the WikiClub.

First meeting: targeted for mid-October.

'''Expected impact''': strengthen the local Wiki community in Calgary, to grow the number of users locally, support their contributions, put together new projects, and give more visibility to the Wiki movement locally.

== List of participants ==
''Indicate here the list of participants that will incur expenses for this activity; you do not need to list all participants that will take part in the activity. Make sure to indicate who is in charge of the activity.''
* Hugo Labrande (co-organizer)
* Geeta Apte (co-organizer)

== Pre-Approval (before expenses) ==
=== Planned Budget ===
''Indicate here your detailed planned budget in Canadian dollars (CAD).''

All costs below will be paid by Hugo Labrande to centralize the admin.

{| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;
!Item !! Amount !! Notes
|-
| Hall rental (October to June)
| 900 $CAD
| Renting a space for 2 hours in a local community hall (capacity: at least 20 people). 9 x $100 CAD
|-
| Snacks
| 180 $CAD
| Budget of $20 for snacks for each of the meetups
|-
| Communication tools
| 120 $CAD
| Business cards, flyers, stickers, etc. TBD with the group
|-
| Documentation
| 100 $CAD
| Buying books, photocopying costs, etc.
|-
|Total
| 1300 $CAD
|}

'''Note''': we request the maximum amount under the microgrants program, $1000. We haven’t secured the venue yet; we are exploring avenues to reduce the rental cost (maybe a discount from having a recurring booking, maybe from another venue that Geeta is currently exploring). Should the cost of the rental be lower than $100 per meeting, we will use the grant to pay for the other things mentioned in the budget.
