Dear colleagues, For RIPE 87, taking place from 27 November to 1 December in Rome, we are making it possible to join via Local Hubs, in different countries where you can meet in person with local community members on a small scale: https://ripe87.ripe.net/attend/call-for-local-hubs/local-hubs/ These hubs will be located in Amsterdam, Bruges, Glasgow, Kyiv, Sanaa and Tallinn! Through this initiative, we can increase diversity and inclusion by allowing more people to participate. For instance, those who could not get a visa, have to take care of (grand) children or old parents, or can not afford to travel. At the same time, instead of watching remotely on your own, you can meet the locals and have a mini-RIPE Meeting cosy feeling. :) Please share the invitations with your local communities, and I'll see you remotely/locally at RIPE 87! Best regards, Vesna Manojlovic -- Senior Community Builder, RIPE NCC https://labs.ripe.net/author/becha/
