Hello Wikimedians in South Africa,
Since some of you have communicated your concern/interest in the recent
invasion of Ukraine I have decided to share the following announcement by
the Cape Town Press club. If you are interested in attending and you are in
Cape Town then please feel free to contact them to book a seat. It is not
cheap at R350 a seat for members of the public but it is very interesting
and the Press Club is always interested in Wikipedians joining their events.
Regards,
Douglas.
