Hi,


My name is Alex Bayley and I'm one of the organisers of AdaCamp
Bangalore (http://bangalore.adacamp.org), which will be held on November
22nd-23rd this year.


AdaCamp is aimed at increasing women's participation in open technology
and culture, which is defined as any field where people create things
collaboratively and give them away for free.  We are particularly keen
to involve people from the CIS or who are otherwise involved in internet
governance, privacy, open knowledge and education, etc.


We'd like to invite any women involved in CIS (such as staff, interns,
or volunteers), or who work with you in related fields, to attend, and
would appreciate it if you could forward this email to anyone you know
who might be interested.


Attendance is by invitation, but applications are open to all women
(defined as: anyone who identifies as a woman in a way that is
significant to them).  Travel scholarships (covering travel,
accommodation, and the event fee) are available to help women attend
from further away. You can find the application on our website linked above.


Please also help us spread the word, via your mailing lists or social
media.  AdaCamp is a fantastic event for women to learn and share, and
has been shown to make women more committed to open technology and
culture.  You can read about the results of our previous camp
here:http://adainitiative.org/2014/07/adacamp-portland-report-out-ive-never-been-to-a-better-conference/


Applications close October 1st, or August 31st if you would like
assistance with travel funding.


All the best,


Alex
