Hi all,

As part of an ongoing The Future of Meetings (TFOM) x Science For the Public Good (S4PG) event series, we're hosting a Wikimedia-focused event on the 29th November, featuring Cristian Consonni, Amanda Jurno, and Daniel Mietchen.

The TFOM x S4PG series of free events aims to initiate discussions about what Science for the Public Good may look like and how it can be achieved, and to showcase how mixed reality approaches can improve how we interact and share our research. We've already had some fantastic discussions around citizen science, and diversity and inclusion, and our next event is fast approaching.

This next event will happen on 29th November 2022 at 13:00 UTC (00:00 AEDT), and it will be focused on Open Data, Wikimedia and Science for the Public Good. We'll be hearing from experts in this space on creating positive outcomes for the public good through dissemination of and access to scientific data and knowledge, including as open tools for education.

The event will take place in Altspace, and you can participate in the event with a VR headset or through a computer via the Altspace application. You can also watch it on a livestream, and ask questions via Slack.

Accessibility grants are also available for, e.g., care arrangements during the event, internet connectivity, or to subsidise the cost of buying a VR headset. For more information, please see ​​https://s4pg.tfom.org/accessibility-grants/
