Converting Posit-Enthusiasm into Posit-Action
summary
A bioinformatics training coordinator at Genomics Aotearoa sets 17 tasks after posit::conf(2023) and turns conference ideas into concrete steps: adopting pepeha and karakia after consulting Vision Mātauranga manager Tracy Godfery; running community sessions via Zoom (one short workshop titled Publication Quality Plots with ggplot2 recovers from a mid-session power cut and still teaches ggplot basics); building a Quarto website to showcase training work for a program with over 1900 attendees and an approaching 100th workshop.
