Glitter Meetup

The IFF Glitter Meetup is a recurring gathering designed to help the Internet Freedom community connect & share throughout the year. During the meetup, participants get the opportunity to virtually network with each other, get answers or advice to questions they may have, share updates about their work, and/or share glitter memes :) In addition, each week it hosts a featured guest with a specific expertise, regional knowledge, or working on an interesting project. We encourage you to check out the schedule below.

When: Every Thursday @ 10am EST

Where: IFF Square Channel on Mattermost Instance

How: To request an invite to the IFF Mattermost, email [email protected]

The Glitter Meetup was started thanks to feedback we received during the 2018 festival, asking that we created more opportunities for the community to interact with each other. It is hosted on Mattermost, a collaboration hub and tool similar to Slack. If you have any recommendations of people we should invite as a featured , please email [email protected]

What takes place during the meetup?

Well, its really decided by YOU! However, this is what we would love to see:

Ask any questions you may have on any topic. Remember, there is no such thing as a stupid question, and more than likely there is a person in our community who probably can help.

Share your work and projects. How else can we all keep up on all the amazing work happening!

Connect with others! So many of us work virtually, and we are spread all over the world, its nice to have a time and place each week where you can meetup with new and old friends.

Help each other! The most important element to community resilience is solidarity. Lets show each other we care.

Celebrate glitter. Its an IFF thing, and it makes people happy and full of sparkle!!
