Hamilton WordPress Meetup | How to Own Your Expertise & Start Speaking at WP Events #Diversity&Inclusion

March 4, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

This workshop is for you if:
– You identify as being from a marginalized or underrepresented group in terms of gender, race, class, sexuality, ability, age, etc.
– You’ve thought about speaking at meetups or WordCamps but haven’t been able to think of a topic
– You think you don’t know anything worth speaking about

All Meetup and WordCamp organizers in our region are also invited to both participate in the exercises and to support the attendees.

We will cover:
– Why speak at WordPress events?
– Dispelling some myths about speakers/speaking
– Coming up with topics and choosing one

Be prepared to participate interactively! We are going to be working on exercises together in small breakout rooms. You can also always say “Pass” to opt-out of participating.

This workshop will be facilitated by a couple of our friends from the #WPDiversity group: AmyJune Hineline (she/her) and Tara King (she/they).
