Keynote: It's Dangerous To Go Alone, Take This: The Power of a Community
summary
A DIY curriculum and logistics system turns into an international program: a 90‑page tutorial and open‑sourced organizer manuals scale into workshops taught in 34 countries across six continents, reaching ~100,000 readers and about 1,646 workshop attendees so far. The project raises sponsorship and financial aid, registers a foundation, hires a paid coordinator, and produces measurable outcomes — attendees become paid developers and local organizers — showing the model actually works at scale.
