Hello once again, We are just a week away from the African Wikimedia Developers (AWMD) Training! The much anticipated training will be led by the only volunteer developer of the Wikimedia Foundation on the continent. In the person of Alangi Derick <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Alangi_derick>. He will be Joining us all the way from Cameroon and he is very delighted to share insights on how to stay relevant in the movement and the opportunities available to developers. We often find less participation in projects like these, that seek to help developers improve their skills and learn in an ecosystem that is very dynamic. Some light is shed on the project in a blog post by Truston Ailende <http://trustonteachestech.blogspot.com.ng/2017/06/african-wikimedia-developers-project.html> as he expresses how AWMD intends to change the current trend. If you still haven't had the time to acquaint yourself with some of the prerequisites for the training, kindly do so by visiting our page. <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/African_Wikimedia_Developers_Project> Also, If you are unable to attend for any reason, please get in touch with jagyepong(a)openfoundationwestafrica.org to enable us extend the slot to the next available person.
