Thank you all WordCamp Kigali was a success and fun.

This is a token of a big thank you to our Sponsors Woocommerce, Godaddy Pro,  JetPack, Avon Software, Impact Hub and BlueHost. Our Sponsors together with the global WordPress community made it possible for us to hold our first WordCamp Kigali 2018.

WordCamp was factored by great speeches from our speakers and winded up by a great after party on the 28th October 2018.

This WordCamp should give us the best opportunity to grow our local community and to remain competitive.

Welcome to WordCamp Kigali 2018

We’re happy to announce that WordCamp Kigali is officially on the calendar!

WordCamp Kigali will be on the 27th and 28t October at Impact Hub Kigali. Kindly email nshimyecraig@gmail.com for more information and to stay up to date on the most recent news. We’ll be keeping you posted on all the details over the coming months, including speaker submissions, ticket sales and more!

WHO GOES TO WORDCAMP?

Anyone with an interest in WordPress, a CMS or websites.

At WordCamp Kigali you won’t just meet web developers and designers on projects of all types and sizes. There are freelancers, hobbyists, small-business owners who maintain their own sites and administrators for schools or non-profits working to enhance their systems. Students are welcome, too. So are complete beginners.

You’ll have opportunities to compare notes and network with those developer and designers, as well as systems administrators, content specialists, accessibility experts, SEO consultants and analytics whizzes.

The WordPress community values diversity, and our mission to include everyone is reflected in our Code of Conduct. We try to accommodate everyone with offerings such as child care (you can request it if you sign up before October), captioning and signing services, accessible conference facilities and  a quiet space for people who need downtime.

Who goes to WordCamp? We hope it will be you!
