The WikiConference North America is a series of presentations, panels, workshops and roundtables led by the Wikimedia community and institutions of knowledge and technology. As our schedule fills up quickly, we encourage everyone to submit their submissions before the end of the day, Friday June 30th. Submissions may be accepted after this date, but approval will be subject to space availability.
We invite submissions that explore how to interlink and collaborate between North America Wikimedia Chapters and User Groups. We will foster a variety of formats in broadcast, large-group, and small-group sessions over three successive days. While the theme and these focus areas will be particular topics the conference will revolve around, we welcome all submissions that are relevant to the Wikimedia movement - do not feel confined to the conference theme or focus areas if you have something great to share!
If you're interested in giving a lightning talk, a short presentation of 5 to 8 minutes (stories, ideas, case studies), please visit: Lightening talks.
