Equitable hybrid approaches for all Wikimedia events
Mike Peel, [email protected], Andrew Lih, Elizabeth Tasker
Remote and hybrid events have demonstrated their ability to increase access to Wikimedia events over the last few years, shown particularly through recent Wikimanias. However, this has not been universal across all Wikimedia events, and online attendees have not always been able to gain the same benefits as in-person interactions. This session will highlight the available tools, design, and social approaches that can be taken to make any event more effectively hybrid, with equitable access online and in-person, and how they can be scaled appropriately to match different event sizes while simultaneously reducing environmental impact.
