WikiPilipinas Filipina Stories, A Contest

Posted by trishadeb on February 16, 2008 · 1 Comment

I am supporting this endeavor in raising the image of Filipinas all over the world, specially in the net. Help spread the word

From Noemi’s blog,

“Dine, Gus Vibal, founder of WikiPilipinas, his staff and I met up last week to discuss ways to support their first online Encyclopedia of Philippine Women that they started in WikiPilipinas.org. I believe Gus is truly sincere in his WikiPilipinasâ€™ vision to be â€œthe largest Philippine knowledge databaseâ€. I mean, Gus pratically invested a lot on WikiPilipinas. (A few sponsors helped though). Dine, Lorna, myself and most of you will agree that we all want to raise the profile of the Filipinas, and be part of a larger movement in uplifting the status of Philippine women. I believe that WikiPilipinas is sincere in their mission as we all are.Â

Here is our collaborative project which I hope you will be a part of:

In line with the principle of honoring the diverse, beautiful, and powerful image of a Filipina, WikiPilipinas will launch a special portal Encyclopedia of Philippine Women inside the site which will compile and detail the achievements and triumphs of Filipinas everywhere. Its sister site Filipiniana.net will also have a Philippine Women Microsite containing documents discussing Filipino women, as well as selected texts from the oeuvres of Filipina writers. Through a combined effort for advocacy, WikiPilipinas partnered with Filipina Images to help promote a more empowering image of the Filipina. By having an online platform to showcase Filipina intelligence and talent, surely the goal will be closer.”
