As WordCamp Central defines:

“WordCamps are informal, community-organized events that are put together by WordPress users like you…”

So all WordCamps are powered by volunteers (lots of volunteers!) to run the show alongside event organisers to help make them wonderful, accessible and welcoming events.

Everything during a WordCamp – from registration to speaker support – is set up and managed by volunteers.

Call for Contributor Team facilitators

Posted on by Hardeep Asrani

The call for Contributor day team facilitators has been closed. Thank you for those who applied.

WordCamp India 2021 will have a two-day long Contributor Day event on the 6th & 7th of February 2021, where participants can give back to the amazing WordPress community by contributing to the project.

Contributor Days are for everyone, regardless of their experience with WordPress. Attendees break up into different teams and each team focuses on contributing to a particular segment of WordPress.

There are many ways of giving back to WordPress, some of them are:

  • Translating WordPress to regional languages so more people who don’t speak English can benefit from the software.
  • Providing support to users on WordPress.org’s Support Forum.
  • Reviewing themes before they get pushed on WordPress.org’s Theme Directory.
  • Contributing code to the WordPress core.
  • And many, many more!

By being a contributor day team facilitator for a Make WordPress team at WordCamp India, you get to facilitate the efforts of a contribution team (consisting of other contributors) and help in giving back to the WordPress project. By facilitating a contributor day team, you get to learn and showcase your Project management skills. It is also one of the coolest ways to give back to the WordPress project!

Read on to find out more about being a contributor day facilitator at WordCamp India. Don’t forget to send in your application as well, if you wish to!

Call for Sponsors WordCamp India 2021

Call for Sponsors

Posted on by Alexander Gounder

WordCamp India 2021 is first WordCamp India in almost a decade, though it is online there are costs involved for which we are looking for sponsors. Our aim is to not only cover our expenses but also raise some funds for the WordCamp Programme as that has helped support many WordCamps in our country over the past many years. Sponsor funds will be collected directly by WordCamp Central unlike other Indian WordCamps where the funds were handled locally, that’s also the reason for the sponsor amounts being mentioned in USD.

We have kept our sponsor plans simple allowing Individuals, Freelancers and companies to come on board as sponsors for reasonably low fee, considering the current pandemic and economic strain; that said we have also made room for a sponsor slab that would allow companies to exhibit their products and offerings through a virtual booth.
