Africa BarCamp

by on September 15, 2008 · 6 comments

A friend pointed me to this event, which looks pretty cool:

Who? Anyone who is interested in technology, mobility, art, social justice, sustainability, micro-finance – and all things Africa-esque
What? A good opportunity to share ideas, start conversations and build connections with people and organizations making a positive impact in Africa
When? Saturday, October 11th 9 am – 8 pm (end time to be confirmed)
Where? Google’s Mountain View Campus

We don’t talk about international development issues much on TLF, but technology certainly plays a key role in helping developing countries develop. If you’re in the Bay Area, you might want to check it out.
