Global Gathering

Summit

The Summit at the Global Gathering will be a small, invite-only event that engages managers and community leaders from the digital rights space in a highly facilitated unconference. Discussions will focus on the most pressing issues in the digital rights space - many exacerbated by the pandemic - including mapping out emerging threats and challenges in the digital rights space as well as organizational and employee health.

The Summit will take place in the mornings, allowing participants the freedom to take full advantage of the Feira in the afternoons and evenings.

Feira

The Feira at the Global Gathering will be held in the afternoons and evenings in a tree-filled, outdoor venue in sunny Estoril, Portugal. It is designed to provide digital rights defenders (DRDs) with a rejuvenating space to reconnect, relax and host informal meetups and discussions. There will also be sun, food, music, local vendors, booths showcasing digital rights projects, and fun evening activities (did someone say karaoke?!). If you are interested in joining the Feira, this year your focus should be on networking and recharging your batteries with your colleagues.

You can still apply to join the Feira at the Global Gathering!

The deadline to apply is June 15th.
