Wir freuen uns sehr, Jac sm Kee @jhybe auf unserer Bühne zu haben!

„Die widerstandsfähigsten Ökosysteme sind diejenigen, die wirklich biodivers sind. Wir müssen also herausfinden: Wie können wir das #OpenSource-Ökosystem diverser machen?
Nicht nur, um zu überleben, sondern um als Bewegung wirklich zu wachsen.
Lasst uns Förderungen nicht nur in Schubladen denken, sondern immer daran denken: Wir unterstützen Menschen, die Probleme beheben und Machtstruktur verändern wollen!"
