موضوع 2021: الصحة والرفاه

أفكار موضوع ويكي تهوى أفريقيا

كان عام 2020 عامًا يركز على السقم والمرض والخوف والخسارة. بالنسبة لموضوع ويكي تهوى أفريقيا لعام 2021، نعتزم إلقاء نظرة إيجابية على مكانتنا وكيف يمكننا أن نكون في المستقبل. إذا لم يكن هناك شيء آخر، فقد أبرز عام 2020 أهمية صحتنا ورفاهيتنا. ليس فقط نظامنا، ولكن كيف تؤثر أنظمتنا الصحية ورفاهيتنا الشخصية على من حولنا - الأشخاص الذين نعرفهم ونحبهم، والغرباء الذين نتواصل معهم أثناء العمل والتسوق والمشي من مكان إلى آخر.

The theme for Wiki Loves Africa 2021 is to visually interrogate all those factors that contribute to health and wellness. What is the difference between health and wellness? Health is seen as the state of physical, mental and social well-being in which disease and infirmity are absent, whereas wellness is the state of living a healthy lifestyle through enhanced well-being.

IMPORTANT: Please note that while the threat of contracting COVID-19 is still present globally, the Wiki Loves Africa organisers encourages people who wish to take photographs to exercise EXTREME CAUTION. Do not attend in-person events or take photographs anywhere without a mask. We would prefer that you use images from your archive or as you go about your daily practices. Please do not place yourself (or any person with you) at risk or in danger. #staysafe.
