Call for Speakers

Greetings, WordPress enthusiasts and professionals! We’re thrilled to open the call for speakers for WordCamp Canada, focusing on a theme that resonates deeper than just technology – the impact of WordPress on diverse communities and practices. While we’re eager to hear from Canadian voices, we welcome insights from around the world. Our platform is not just for sharing knowledge but also for voicing the experiences that shape our WordPress community.

For our first Canada-wide WordCamp, we’re particularly interested in discussions around:

  • Accessibility in the Digital Space: How does WordPress meet the Canadian provincial laws around accessibility? Share your insights and experiences in creating an inclusive web.
  • Empowering Indigenous Communities: Explore how WordPress and Open Source Software can be tools for empowerment in Indigenous communities.
  • Open Source and the Indigenous Worldview: Delve into the intersection between Open Source principles and Indigenous perspectives.
  • Impact on Underrepresented Communities: We want to hear your stories on how WordPress has been a game-changer for your group or community.
  • Multilingual Development: As a multilingual country, we are looking for technical talks on implementing multilingual WordPress installs.
  • Cross Border Working: Tips, tricks and issues working internationally.

We encourage speakers to delve into these topics with a focus on social commentary, sharing stories and insights that go beyond technical tutorials. If you have multiple topics to share, feel free to submit them separately.

This is your opportunity to contribute to a meaningful dialogue at WordCamp Canada. Whether you’re a seasoned speaker or new to public speaking, your perspective is valuable and can inspire change. Let’s explore the broader social impact of WordPress and open-source technology together. Submit your proposal today and help shape an inclusive and insightful event!
