Hi, Vojtech. I’ve been working as a consultant for this project and Jessie Wild has given a *great* support to my work as coordinator. So, from WMF, we have two people more directly, although we have a lot of people all over the world working and thinking together on how to improve this global project. When I share experiences with people working in India, for instance, it’s really useful to use some of their learning points to the Brazilian program, adapting to my country context.

If we consider the volunteers work been done until now, we have 5 professors and more than 20 wikipedians involved. Without volunteers work, the project wouldn’t be possible to progress as it is now and I hope we can grow as long as the project develop to become really community-driven in the mid term.

Hi, this is a cool project and I congratulate to all the organisers. Just out of curiosity, how many people have been working on this project in Brazil?
