Wikipedia & Education enthusiasts,
You may remember that the Wikipedia & Education User Group had been
planning an in-person EduWiki Conference in Belgrade, Serbia, in late
2020. The event was obviously postponed due to the pandemic. We're
pleased to say that we're re-starting our planning, with a target date
for the conference of sometime around March/April 2023.
As we undertake our planning, we'd like to get input from the EduWiki
community on whether you'd like to attend such a conference, what
topics you'd like to discuss, and what your priorities would be at a
conference. We'll use these survey results to gauge interest in the
conference, budget for scholarships, and design the program.
Please fill out the survey by Wednesday, August 10:

We look forward to your responses!
