Since our inception in 2021, we have identified two significant challenges while exploring the open knowledge ecosystem. There are extensive knowledge gaps related to Muslims and Muslim-related topics, and apparently Muslim participation within these ecosystems remains notably low. This gap in representation perpetuates systemic biases, despite the fact that Muslims possess valuable knowledge and have the potential to be leaders in these open spaces. Our surveys have found that many of our community members are usually unsure how to effectively engage, and do not feel ease in navigating the open spaces. Through TaW, we aim to addresses these challenges and aims to empower our community in open ecosystems.		{{Hatnote\|For the program overview of different editions, see the [[:meta:Deoband Community Wikimedia/Events/Train a Wikipedian\|Meta-Wiki page]].}}
