*D*ear Wikimedia Community, On behalf of the ZedWiki Podcast Production Team, I am pleased to announce the release of the latest episode of the ZedWiki Podcast, which debuted on June 1, 2026.
Season 2, Episode 6, titled "From Information to Innovation," represents a significant milestone for our "Knowledge Without Borders" initiative, as the production team traveled on location to Nakonde, Zambia's prominent northern gateway. Hosted by Joy Chikonde (Shah), the episode examines the intersections of cross-border dynamics, regional heritage, and how open access to information drives societal innovation. The episode features several key segments designed to bridge local history with global movement updates: - *Today in History:* A historical review of major milestones associated with June 1, featuring an in-depth look at the legacy of the Lusaka Manifesto. - *My Town, Your Town:* An exploration of Nakonde, focusing on its cultural footprint, economic significance, and role in regional connectivity. - *Wikimedia Tech & Tools:* An update on the latest technical developments and digital tools available to empower open-knowledge editors and volunteers globally. - *Cultural Curation:* A selection of featured music integrated into the broadcast, highlighting tracks from Platform 1, Tinie Tempah, Wiz Khalifa, Keri Hilson, and Ne-Yo. This production was made possible through the efforts of Isaac User:Icem4k (Producer and Writer), Louis (Sound Engineer) Jason and Grace User:ChaloNiZambia (Research team). By translating documented history into an accessible auditory format, this project continues to preserve regional oral traditions while expanding Zambia's presence within the global free-knowledge ecosystem. The episode is now available for streaming on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon Music plus other major Podcast platforms. We invite you to listen, share within your networks, and engage with this latest piece of community-driven documentation. - Apple Podcast Episode Link ZedWiki Podcast – S2, E6: From… - ZedWiki Podcast - Apple Podcasts <https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/zedwiki-podcast-s2-e6-from-information-to-innovation/id1847574436?i=1000770540855> - Spotify - Spotify – Web Player <https://open.spotify.com/show/2IFDypps6ugWfDTGbUXdnT> - Amazon Music- S2, E6: From Information to Innovation <https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/8f0091e8-746e-43da-9922-cba6e154e975/episodes/a681847f-2254-485d-9c5d-76a41ebfa55f/zedwiki-podcast-zedwiki-podcast-%E2%80%93-s2-e6-from-information-to-innovation> - Pocket Casts - ZedWiki Podcast – S2, E6: From Information to Innovation - Pocket Casts <https://pocketcasts.com/podcast/zedwiki-podcast/742541b0-9d1a-013e-0dba-0243b8a24f53/zedwiki-podcast-s2-e6-from-information-to-innovation/1112587f-331d-4abf-87f7-6abfce90a2e0> Sincerely, > > *Wikimedia Community User Group Zambia**Comms Team* >
