Hi! In data science and programming, breaking down language barriers is pivotal for creating an inclusive learning environment. We are excited to announce an event that aligns with this vision – the *Glosario Codefest!* This event, made possible by a grant from the Andrew <https://carpentries.org/blog/2024/01/mellon-foundation/> W. Mellon Foundation <https://carpentries.org/blog/2024/01/mellon-foundation/>, marks a step forward in advancing data science knowledge and accessibility for our diverse global community.
Our inaugural Glosario Codefest will coincide with The Carpentries’ Board of Directors retreat in Oakland, California (USA) on *29 February, 14:00 UTC* (find your time <https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Glosario+Codefes&iso=20240229T1400> ; add to calendar <https://calendar.google.com/calendar/event?action=TEMPLATE&tmeid=MnQxMjk1Zjhoa2s3djNlYms4Y2ZhdjV2cjggYW5nZWxpcXVlQGNhcnBlbnRyaWVzLm9yZw&tmsrc=angelique%40carpentries.org>); you can sign up on this Etherpad <https://pad.carpentries.org/Glosario_Codefest_2024>. This event encourages new contributions to Glosario <https://glosario.carpentries.org/> from our governance and global community. The linguistically diverse board, representing regions such as DACH ( Germany, Austria, and Switzerland), Oceania, and South America, will actively translate terms into languages like Hindi, Spanish, and German, expanding Glosario’s reach and impact. Quarterly co-working sessions will follow this event.
