- Abstract
There are all kinds of offline outreach organized by the local communities around the world about Wikimedia movement. General audience outreach is very popular and easy to do among all these procedures, especially for who has not much experience of hosting offline events. General audience outreach has many limits, despite it has more or less necessity.
In the workshop, I will analysis my 7-year experience of offline outreach in China and U.S., to discuss why single session, general audience outreach has limited outcome, as well as how can we avoid problems in this kind of event. I will conduct some discussion about, what are some other common problems of offline outreach and how to find a good strategy for a specific community and targeted audience.
