Dear colleagues, A large number of community members have reached out to me and others over the past few years to discuss the Carpentries in Nigeria.
I have struggled to bring everyone together to help facilitate a conversation where those who are collocated or able to travel to nearby locations, can find out about each other and connect. In 2016 we used a Github issue to mobilise a community of mentors to assist with African instructor guidance. Maybe we can do something similar for Nigeria now. I have created a Github issue in the African Task Force repo. The way that I see it, is that there will be more regional community efforts as the Carpentries grow, so maybe this is a model for others? If you are in or from Nigeria or just interested to help making a workshop in Nigeria happen, please can you comment on the issue at https://github.com/carpentries/african-task-force/issues/2. You will need to create a FREE Github account to participate in the discussion. If you have any questions or comments, please add them on the issue or email us at [email protected]. Thanks everyone!
