WCEH Keynote: Jill Binder

WordCamp Canada 🇨🇦 Ottawa, Ontario 🍁 October 15-17

We are thrilled to announce that Jill Binder will be joining us from Vancouver as a keynote speaker at WordCamp Canada 2025! Jill is internationally recognized for her groundbreaking work in diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging within the WordPress community and beyond.

Jill has led initiatives that have empowered thousands of underrepresented voices to step into leadership roles, share their expertise on stage, and reshape the future of open source. Her programs, including the Diverse Speaker Training Group, have been adopted by WordPress meetups and WordCamps around the world, making WordPress events more reflective of the vibrant, global community that powers the platform.

In her keynote, Jill will share insights from her journey, lessons learned from building inclusive spaces, and practical guidance for how we can all contribute to a more diverse and welcoming WordPress ecosystem. Expect to walk away inspired, equipped with new perspectives, and ready to make positive changes in your own communities.

We can’t wait to welcome Jill to the WordCamp Canada stage. Join us in celebrating her leadership, learning from her experience, and continuing the work of building a stronger, more inclusive WordPress community together.

Stay tuned for more details on Jill’s keynote and the full WordCamp Canada 2025 schedule coming soon!
