fempower.tech Festival 2019
9th-10th August 2019
About this Event
fempower.tech invite all self-identifying feminists interested in tech to join us at our first ever annual planning meeting!
We want to hear about what you want out of fempower.tech and how you want to get involved!
We invite all self-identifying feminists to join us for two days of feminist community-building, planning, scheming, and other fun shenanigans. We particularly want to invite those who want to find out more about fempower.tech and those who have thought about getting involved but weren't quite sure how!
If you're not able to attend in person, we'll have a few ways of how you can get involved online as well which we will let you know about soon. These may include things such as:
- dedicated tweeting about #fempowertechAGM - they will also keep an eye out for any contributions on Twitter
- documentation on our website - fempower.tech
