Join us for 2 hours Tuesday September 09, 14:00 European Central (12:00 UTC) for Social Coworking + Office Hours

This month we’re focusing on the theme Improving accessibility in your work (teaching materials, websites, presentations, etc.) with community host Silvia CanelĂłn, researcher, R educator, and data journalist. Silvia is passionate about improving accessibility in her own work and in helping others learn how to do the same.

Come for the full 2 hrs or only as long as you need!

Cowork

  • Explore where you might improve accessibility in your work
  • Start making changes to improve accessibility
  • Cowork independently on work related to R
    • Plan out that package you’ve always wanted to create
    • Work on packages that tend to be neglected
    • What ever you need to get done!
