The ZedWiki Podcast is a collaborative initiative developed by the Wikimedia Community User Group Zambia, in partnership with Chalo Chatu.

In this episode, host Blueprint chats with Chabota Kanguya, a dedicated Wikimedian from Zambia, about his inspiring journey in the Wikimedia movement — from his first edit to becoming one of Zambia’s most active contributors.
