Women who wants to join Personal Democracy Forum, listen up!
Personal Democracy Forum is a conference that crosses the world of technology and politics. PDF brings together a thousand top opinion makers, political practitioners, technologists, and journalists from across the ideological spectrum for two days to network, exchange ideas, and explore how technology and wired citizens are changing politics, governance, and civil society.
This is the video of keynote from last year by Catherine Bracy of Code for America, "What Techies Need to Know About Politics"
This year, PDF will be held on 6/5-6 in New York at NYU’s Skirball Center, and the theme is “Save the Internet | The Internet Saves,” focusing on the ways people can work together to keep the Internet open for free speech and association, and how the Internet itself helps make society and civic life more open, participatory, and innovative.
