Hi ButchThank you very much for take time to explain to us how we could onboard offline topic to the ESEAP Conference. I really appreciate it and want already to apologize for the pretty late feedback on our side.
But I have been thinking since many days already what would make more more sense because, like you have written, Kiwix can be use in various scenarios.
At the end, I propose to follow the "Education" track. I also think that there is no effective education if you keep the poorest just aside, so the "Equity" is quite unsubstantial to the education.
My overall feeling is that maybe not everybody might know well about Kiwix, so an approach would be:
* Kiwix presentation * Scenarios how it can help in the classroom/library * Homegrown initiative like kiwix4schools * How we can collaborateI think we could do that in a form of a "Workshop" in the "Technology" track. I made the submission under the title "20 years of Kiwix: your library without Internet"
I have very open to remarks/critics to change it. The ESEAP region is not so well understood within our organisation, but I would really like to fill the gap on this during the next years.
BTW, next year Kiwix will be 20! So glad if we can celebrate this in Kaohsiung as well.
