[lp-ca-on] Register for Our Networks 2019 > RE: Infrastructures, September 20-22 in Toronto!

[dc]

Hi all,

I'm one of the co-organizers of Our Networks, a conference about the
past, present, and future of building our own network infrastructures.

Now in its third year, the theme for 2019 is RE: Infrastructures, and
explores the collective care and maintenance of alternative networking
practices—new protocols, peer-to-peer connections, offline-first
computing, and community-based governance.

The program and registration have recently launched (full blurb below)
and we're all pretty excited about the line up!

It'll be a mix of hands-on workshops, talks, and discussions around the
decentralized and peer-to-peer web as well as community governance and
networks.  We also have some social activities planned, screenings, a
zine library, and more!

The event has a sliding scale registration ($25-110 CAD) and ticket
scholarships available, to register and find out more:

Hope to see some of you all there,
Dawn
