Celebrate International Women’s Day With Google Developer Communities in Europe!
This year, to celebrate International Women’s Day, we are empowering our community to have courage, be bold and dream big.
Women Techmakers Ambassadors are hosting events all over the world with the theme “Dare To Be”. The beauty of this theme is that it can be applied to so many aspects of our lives — it encourages us to imagine what and who we dare to be, and walk through the world with courage and confidence.
“Dare To Be” theme recognizes that each and every one of us brings a different set of skills and strengths to the table. And when we combine all these skills and strengths, we are able to create an environment where women can thrive in tech.
Get inspired, connect with like-minded individuals and learn something new on our local International Women’s Day events. We’ve combined a list of all the amazing events organized by our community members for you to choose from.
