Wikimania 2026 EduWiki Sessions Focus on AI Literacy and Education Practice

Wikimania 2026 held two EduWiki education sessions in Paris on July 22 and 24, 2026. The first, a panel on AI and Wikipedia in education, drew about 60 educators and Wikimedia project leaders. The second was the EduWiki Hub's first in-person workshop, where 30 participants worked in groups to design Wikimedia education activities.

The sessions show how the Wikimedia community is incorporating AI literacy into educational practice, with actionable approaches such as fact-checking generated content and comparing language editions. Educators gain concrete ideas for using Wikipedia to verify AI information in class. The Hub's first in-person workshop may encourage more offline cooperation and resource sharing.
