Subject: [Wikimediaus-l] WikiCon North America 2024: Scholarship apps +
program submissions now open!
To: Wikimedians Active in Local Regions of the United States (WALRUS) <
wikimediaus-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Hello,
WikiConference North America is excited to share that the 2024 conference
will be taking place in Indianapolis, Indiana, United States! Our annual
Culture Crawl will take place on October 3, followed by conference
programming from October 4-6. Our theme will be "Crossroads", inspired by
the Indiana state motto and also alluding to the multiple meanings of the
word—as the place where Wikimedians from across the continent cross paths,
as well as what we hope will be a turning point for participants.
Please visit the conference website for more information:
https://wikiconference.org/wiki/2024/Main_Page
If you are interested in attending, please read on for scholarship
information and program submissions.
We are now accepting scholarship applications through May 31. Any active
Wikimedian in North America is eligible to apply to have their travel
and/or accommodations covered for the event. If interested, please visit
https://scholarships.wcna.wiki to apply.
We are also accepting program submissions through May 31. If you'd like to
submit a lecture, panel, roundtable, workshop, lightning talk, or other
meetup, please visit
https://submissions.wcna.wiki.
For those interested in attending, registration will be opening soon, and
you will receive another email when it does. For your reference, pricing
will be identical to last year. Individual tickets are $25, and
professional tickets for those attending on behalf of a company or
organization are $100. All proceeds will go towards this and future
WikiConference North America events. We will also offer free tickets to
enable everyone to participate regardless of financial constraints.
If you plan to travel to the conference from outside of the United States,
please review entry requirements through the U.S. Visa portal (
https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resour…).
Document applications and renewals can take a while during this busy travel
season, so you're encouraged to check them now!
If you have any questions, please reach out to the team at
info(a)wikiconference.org. You can also chat with organizers and attendees in
our Telegram group at
https://chat.wcna.wiki/.
Thank you!
On behalf of the WCNA organizing team,
Kevin Payravi (User:SuperHamster)
