Great work!
Lets hope more languages will be able to do the same.
I will see if it is possible to make the Swedish dementia-organisation 
interested.

Subject: [Wikimedia Education] Caregiving and dementia workshop

A wiki Caregiving and dementia workshop was held yesterday at the University of 
Canberra.  The event, with 11 participants of which 10 were female, was 
organised by Dementia Training Study Centres around Australia with JTNeill 
taking the lead.

Dementia Training Study Centres in Australia have decided to use WMF platforms 
to organise and share information regarding dementia on WMF projects similar to 
work being done by other GLAMs.  The hope is this will turn into a good pilot 
programme inside Australia to encourage greater academic participation on 
Wikipedia, Wikiversity, Wikibooks, Wikinews, Wikisource and other projects.  It 
is also hoped that the project will enable the long term preservation of work 
being done by the various groups involved.  Too much of it now gets created on 
CD or in print and then disappears.


Details of the project can be found at
