Trans*Code event at EuroPython ’23 in Prague #Python #EuroPython #Trans

At EuroPython 2022 in Dublin last summer, Trans*Code held its joyous return after the pandemic. This year, in collaboration with the trans/NB community in Czechia, they will be back to continue building the tradition. The full day workshop/hackday will be open to all trans and non-binary folk, allies, coders, designers and visionaries of all sorts.

  • When: 18 July 2023
  • Where: Prague Congress Centre (PCC), Room TBC

Trans*Code is an international hack event series focused on building connections and community while exploring the tech side of transgender issues and opportunities. Trans*Code events are informal hackdays where participants can explore their ideas in collaboration with like-minded people. Coders, designers, activists, visionaries of all sorts, and community members not currently working in technology are all welcome and encouraged to participate.

Trans*Code events are similar to hackathons, but with some key differences:

  • Events are only one day long. So you don’t need to take off an entire weekend;
  • Events are not competitive. At Trans*Code events, we’re all pulling for each other. While we do have final presentations, they are made in the spirit of sharing, not in the spirit of competition;
  • Events encourage following your interests. Want to work on that project? Fine, do it. Want to spend the morning with this one, and the afternoon with that one? The choice is yours. Trans*Code subscribes to the Un-Conference philosophy – whatever happens is exactly what should happen.
