#Wiki4Women is an initiative that aims to promote better representation of committed women of knowledge in the digital sphere through the creation, editing, and translation of women profiles and lists on Wikipedia. These profiles and lists contain information that is created and maintained by a variety of sources, and might include the personal opinions and other expressions of the persons who post the entries. UNESCO does not control, monitor or guarantee the information contained in these profiles and lists, or information contained in links to other external web sites, and does not endorse any views expressed or products or services offered therein. In no event shall UNESCO be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with the use of or reliance on any such content, goods, or services available on or through any such site or resource. |
