Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight

Dame Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight is a Trustee of the Wikimedia Foundation Board and a Visiting Scholar at Northeastern University (Boston). She is a co-founder of Women in Red, a virtual community that focuses on improving the content gender gap across all language Wikipedias. Women in Red was shortlisted for the ITU/UN Women GEM-TECH award and Rosie was knighted in part for her Wikipedia work. “While I’ve created more than 5,500 Wikipedia articles, my sons tell me that I can’t create all of them, that I have to inspire others. That’s my commitment.”
