Since then, we have initiated programs such as DCW Conversation Hour, Heritage Lens, and Mehfil-e-Wiki, and have guided the movement through our student-led Wiki Clubs. We have had representation at Wikimania 2023, WikiWomenCamp 2023, Train The Trainer 2023, Wikimedia Summit 2024, Wikimedia Technology Summit 2024, Train The Trainer 2024, She Leads Bootcamp 2025, Wikimedia Youth Conference 2025, Wikimania 2025, Advanced Train The Trainer 2025, and the GLAM-Wiki Conference 2025. We have collectively made a lot of impact, making us one of the most active South Asian Wikimedia communities. <br /> &lt;gallery mode=packed&gt;<br /> File:Wikimedians at WTS2024 Hyderabad (12).jpg<br /> File:Aafi with Akbarali and Khaatir at WCI 2023.jpg<br /> File:Wikimedia Youth Conference 2025 Prague - Day 2 - 144.jpg<br /> File:Humaira Ali and Muneeb at DCW Train a Wikipedian, 22-02-2025.jpg<br /> &lt;/gallery&gt;<br /> <br /> We will celebrate our achievements and impact towards the end of December 2025, most likely in Aligarh, by bringing about 40 of our community members together, with a theme of '''Collaborate, Impact, and Sustain''', in our first-ever annual Community Convening.<br /> <br /> ===Scholarship criteria and form===<br /> Scholarship form can be accessed from [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe-RT3zDMsijE-b-v8Towl35OXjDHZXEJcUzTzue19dEn4vHQ/viewform here].
