Hello Everyone!,

We are accepting calls for volunteers for Pycon Zim 2018. PyCon Zim 2018 is organized and run by volunteers of  the Zimbabwe Python community under the supervision of the Python Zimbabwe Trust. Won't you join us and make PyCon Zim a great experience? You can volunteer as much or as little as you can. Please sign up!

We are looking for volunteer staff for the following :

  • Program
    • This team handles creating the event theme, setting up the Keynote, as well as deciding on Talk Sessions and schedule.
  • Venue
    • The venue team handles deciding on the venue, communicating and resolving issues with the venue, handling operations such as network equipment etc.
  • Media/PR
    • The media team handles PR, and communications with the community and world at large. We give lightning talks about PyCon Zim, handle the website, for the event.
  • Admin
    The Admin staff handles internal communication between teams, accounting, and other miscellaneous tasks.
Even if you aren't given tasks to do, we certainly value your input and suggestions. We would like to make PyCon Zim 2018 the best PyCon Zim ever so please let us know your ideas!

The number of team meetings varies  but we are currently trying to organize online as much as possible.
For communication we will be using email, whatsapp, and Slack  while for task management we will be using Trello. We are also looking at ways to make it possible for those who would not be able to use the above platforms  due to various reasons like internet connectivity e.t.c.

Warm Regards

Humphrey.
