| # Community Organizers Summit | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| The vibrant Python community plays a key role in driving the language's growth and success by engaging individuals through meetups, conferences, forums, and numerous other opportunities. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| Effective communication is essential to avoid redundancy and learn from past mistakes. By gathering at EuroPython, we can exchange stories of our community experiences, as well as share personal challenges and triumphs, empowering more communities to prosper and progress. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
|  | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| At EuroPython 2026, we are excited to host a special Community Organizers Summit. This event brings together individuals who actively contribute to organizing Python events and communities across Europe and beyond. The goal is to facilitate networking, knowledge sharing, and collaboration among community organizers. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ### What to Expect | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| The **Community Organizers Summit** is designed as a collaborative, hands-on experience that moves from shared context into deeper discussion and practical reflection. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| It begins with a **short introduction**, setting the stage for the day’s activities and welcoming attendees from across the Python community. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| From there, the summit moves into **facilitated small group discussions**, where participants explore topics related to organizing Python events and communities. These sessions are designed to encourage in-depth conversation, knowledge sharing, and exchange of real-world experiences. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| Each group will then come back together for **short presentations**, sharing key insights, discussion points, and conclusions that emerged during their conversations. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
|  | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| In essence, the Community Organizers Summit is a crucial component of EuroPython, bringing together organizers from across the Python ecosystem to connect, learn from one another, and collaborate on strengthening their communities. | ||||||

| ## Community Organisers Lunch | ||||||
|
|
||||||
|  | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| Have you had the pleasure of meeting all organizers from other Python communities and conferences? If not, this is an exceptional opportunity to expand your network and engage with passionate individuals dedicated to nurturing Python events and communities. By connecting with each other, we can create more chances for learning, networking, and personal growth through Python. | ||||||

Hmmm I think the lunch wording could be adjusted a bit. It worked well as a first networking point, but now that many organisers will have spent the morning together at the summit, it feels slightly out of place. Maybe it could be framed more as a continuation of the summit over lunch, while still making it clear that organisers who couldn’t attend the summit are very welcome to join. |

How about Wednesday to Friday, 15-17 July, or 15-17 July (Wednesday - Friday), basically anything that groups the days together and the dates together so it’s easier to read at a glance |
