Hi
The 2017 WikiIndaba is coming up soon, in January in Accra, Ghana. Details on the website at: http://2017.wikiindaba.net/
At this week's AGM, 4 people expressed interest in attending, and it'd be great to see a large South African contingent there, so please register on the website if you're interested in going.
Note that although it's not listed on the website, they announced in a mail on the African mailing list that there's a deadline of the 18th of November for applicants needing a scholarship to complete the Needs and Assessment: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiIndaba_conference_2016/Questions_%26_Nee...
