Ends:

Time Zone: Europe/Berlin (GMT +02:00)

Wie unterstützt Künstliche Intelligenz bei der Diagnose schwerer Erkrankungen? Welche Vorteile bringen Ride-Sharing und autonomes Fahren in der Stadt und auf dem Land? Welchen Beitrag leisten Smart Meter und virtuelle Kraftwerke zur Umsetzung der Energiewende? Wie unterstützen Big Data und IoT auf dem Weg zur nachhaltigen Landwirtschaft? Wie sieht ein auf digitalen Lieferketten basierender Einzelhandel der Zukunft aus?

Childhood Cancer Advocate's Virtual Event

I'm shaving my head with St. Baldrick's to raise money and help conquer kids' cancers! Every 2 minutes a child is diagnosed with cancer worldwide, and 1 in 5 of those in the U.S. will not survive. I refuse to accept this reality, so I’ve decided to fundraise for lifesaving research to find cures and better treatments for kids. Now I need your support! Your donation can fund research to help kids survive and thrive. Join me today and let’s #DFYchildhoodCancers together.

Childhood Cancer Advocate's Virtual Event

About a year ago, a handful of colleagues got together. At first glance, it wouldn't appear that we had much in common. We were all different ages, came from different backgrounds, held different jobs. But we had one thing in common: the desire to save a child from cancer. 
 
Our team reflects the impact that cancer can have on anyone. One member's son just successfully completed 3.5 years of chemotherapy. Another member's nephew tragically lost his battle with cancer. And another member beat cancer herself. 
 
As Childhood Cancer Advocates, we are united in our desire of health for all children with cancer, but they cannot fight it on their own. We are inspired by our heroes and want to end childhood cancer, because their fight is our fight. 
 
We are part of the St. Baldrick's organization because we want to support the critical research they advance all over the world. When you give to St. Baldrick's, you support more than 377 institutions that treat children in 30 countries. 
 
Seeing a child fight cancer changes you forever. That's been the case for us. We are endlessly inspired by the strength, resilience and joy of our heroes. But no child should have to fight it or lose their lives to it. 
 
This is our opportunity as parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, neighbors and colleagues, to give these kids something many of them don't have...the chance to grow up.

DWeb Meetup: July—2020 Community Views Around the Globe

In global communities w/out internet, how do you educate students, share good health information and protect yourself during COVID?

Time Zone: UTC

One year after DWeb Camp 2019, our world is in flux. We’ve never needed community and connection more.

Join us for the July DWeb Meetup: 2020 Community Views Around the Globe

On Gather.town, we invite you to join stretching on the beach at 9:15 AM Pacific.

Custom Camps will lead us in ice breaking games at 9:30-9:50 AM PT.

And we’ll hear from some of our 2019 Global Fellows, sharing their on-the-ground experiences from India, Brazil, and South Africa.

In communities that are largely offline, how do you educate your students, share good health information and protect yourself during COVID? What technologies and community practices are emerging to fill these needs?

DWeb Community: This is a chance to listen. To learn from those on-the-ground building community networks and offline solutions. For developers: a rare look into the tech needs of large swaths of the globe and some of the homegrown solutions that are emerging amidst the crisis.

Plus, John Conor Ryan and Mai Sutton will unveil the first set of DWeb Principles for your input and feedback.

Dat Conference 2020

Virtual peer to peer event about local-first tech and meetup space for everyone interested in the decentralized web.

Time Zone: Europe/Berlin (GMT +02:00)

Dat is a community ecosystem of peer-to-peer projects. They build on a shared set of technologies called the Hypercore protocol.

In this first, virtual Dat conference, we want to connect people involved in the community and in the surrounding space. We’ll provide the infrastructure, a website and a schedule, and we’ll try to assist with technical needs for special sessions.

However, filling this space will be up to all of you, the participants! If you want to do introductions and presentations there will be a channel dedicated just for showing looped, pre-recorded videos. For the actual conference, we’re looking for all kinds of ideas such as sessions on how to foster collaboration, inclusiveness and knowledge sharing, thoughts on experimentation and other discussions. Potential formats could include workshops, technical deep dives, VR meetups, collaborative livecoding - be creative!

Let’s share our approaches and talk about the present and the future of local-first technology and applications.

DWeb Meetup: 2020—The State of the Decentralized Web

How can decentralized protocols scale? What are the roadblock issues? 2 groups share new reports with key ways your project can move forward

About this Event

It's 2020 and the Decentralized Web has working code. Protocols used by dozens of projects. Projects employing 100+ developers. But if you zoom out, where is the DWeb Ecosystem as a whole? What will it take to scale to widespread audiences?

DWeb Meetup June brings you two new reports on decentralization and a free user experience design clinic, meant to bring the report's recommendations to life.

Plus, we're experimenting with a new meetup platform: Gather.town, using WebRTC to create a virtual gathering space complete with a beach, bar, auditorium and hang out spaces.

Check out these new reports:

Decentralization, off the shelf.

There is a significant gap between the protocols that define the decentralization space and the applications that users want to adopt. Through a series of interviews and focus groups with technology designers and builders, the authors have identified 7 areas where projects can improve their own practice; where targeted research is necessary; and where funders can enable collaborative innovations.

First read their research report: Decentralization Off the Shelf—7 Maxims

At the Dweb Meetup, Decentralization Off the Shelf (hosted by Simply Secure) will be inviting decentralized applications to a free user experience clinic. They are inviting everyone - from early-stage prototypes to already-launched projects - to submit a request for free help during the meetup. We will select up to 5 participants to highlight during the event, helping their project better succeed as well as providing a learning opportunity for everyone else!

Need user experience help?

If you’d like your project to be highlighted in the event, please fill out this brief survey and we will contact you with further details!

Hear from one of the report's authors, Karissa McKelvey, who researches technical architecture design and its impact on usability, safety, and resilience. Previously, she led user and developer experience for dat and hypercore, a decentralized data sharing tool and peer-to-peer hypermedia protocol.

Design Clinic by Eileen Wagner, who advises teams and organizations on UX design and research at Simply Secure. Her focus is on information architecture, content strategy, and interaction design--or anything that helps people make sense of complex technologies.

Researchers at Fluence surveyed 650 Decentralized Web developers for insights into ongoing progress, major hurdles and bumps along the road. Here's what they found:

Read "Decentralized Web Developer Report 2020"

Or see the highlights

At the DWeb Meetup, hear from one of the report's authors, Anna Lekanova, who leads community building at Fluence, a peer-to-peer computing protocol & a software licensing system.
