Wikimedia Hackathon 2021/Schedule
The event will take place from Friday, May 21st, to Sunday, May 23th. The schedule will take in account the various time zones in which the participants are located.
The program consists in one main track of sessions, that participants can follow and comment, and that will be recorded, and several open rooms for informal discussions, workshops and other sessions, that will be interactive and not recorded. The entire program is powered by the participants and monitored by the coordination team. You can find more information on how to contribute.
