Pycon
Australia
will hold their first education “miniconf” in 2015
and evidence from discussions at
Europython 2014
suggests that
many European countries are in the early stages of making their
own national conferences education-friendly with tracks for teach‐
ers and/or students.
Such educational efforts are not limited to conference tracks for
teachers and kids. Underrepresented groups in the wider technology
sector have had their educational needs met by the Python commu‐
nity:
PyLadies
is an international network of chapters providing
mentorship and support for women who want to take a more active
role in the Python community,
Django Girls
organizes free Python
and Django workshops for women, and
Trans*Code
runs hack days
that draw attention to transgender issues while focusing on intro‐
ductory programming courses for those not currently working in
technology.
The Python community is active, engaged and enthusiastic.
Why not get involved?
