Dear All, Want to join a community call sharing experiences in community building?
As a follow-up from discussions that began at RSE17 in Manchester (more details here: https://software.ac.uk/blog/2018-05-09-building-communities-support-research-software-engineering-blog-series <https://software.ac.uk/blog/2018-05-09-building-communities-support-research-software-engineering-blog-series>), a group of us are organising a series of community calls on the topic of community building. The aim of these calls is to bring together people from across a diverse set of communities, to share their experiences and advice on this subject. I expect that many people on this list will have valuable contributions to make to such discussions. The calls will be limited to one hour in duration, beginning with a section focussed on a particular topic, followed by time reserved for general discussion. Our first call will take place next week, at 14:00 UTC (16:00 CEST) on Thursday 14th June 2018. The discussion topic will be “Connecting geographically isolated community members”. The call will take place on Zoom, at this address: https://zoom.us/j/5731515972 <https://zoom.us/j/5731515972>. If you’d like to join, you can add your name to the list on this shared pad, where we will take notes during the call: https://bio-it-embl.piratenpad.de/building-communities <https://bio-it-embl.piratenpad.de/building-communities> If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Please also forward this message to anyone else who you think might be interested. Looking forward to seeing you there, Toby Hodges ------------------------------------------ The Carpentries: discuss Permalink: https://carpentries.topicbox.com/groups/discuss/T64e23b3a60f62d42-Mf511e2db6b9f2650f8d25e1c Delivery options: https://carpentries.topicbox.com/groups
