Share Your Knowledge (2011-2012, sometimes shortened as SYK) is a program that enhances the content and work of cultural organisations through Creative Commons and the Wikimedia Foundation websites, prompted by the good results of a previous experience with the Italian GLAM Associazione Amici del Museo delle Grigne Onlus.
It is also a subproject of "WikiAfrica", which is focused on creating African contents on Wikimedia Foundation's sites (especially articles on Wikipedia) with the involvement of research and documentation centres, institutions for international cooperation and archives. Share Your Knowledge helps WikiAfrica reaching the 30,000 African contents milestone by the end of this year, regarding the number just as a chance to collaborate and engage as many people and institutions as possible. They are both promoted by the Italian nonprofit Foundation lettera27.
