Celebration of the Year of Sound
In 2022, radio in Switzerland celebrates its 100th anniversary. Wikimedia CH is taking this as an opportunity to designate 2022 as the Year of Sound. Noises, sounds, waves, instruments, music, historical moments - with this theme we open the field for any projects and activities around audio material - in Switzerland and abroad. We are interested in the sounds themselves, but also in their history and their connection with the development of our society in all its facets.
The program encompasses activities organized by the community, Wikimedia CH or initiated by a GLAM institution or like-minded organization, but mostly in collaboration within the community. If you are interested to participate in one of our events, please find out more about the planned activities in our events overview section.
During 2022, Wikimedia CH will support upcoming activities initiated by volunteers and / or Swiss cultural institutions, following the the Year of Sound. You can find further information on how to participate and contribute in the respective section. If you like to organize an event in collaboration with us, or you require support, please contact us at Wikimedia CH.
