Ada Lovelace Day
After last year’s triumph, and given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we’ve decided to once again hold Ada Lovelace Day online.
As we did last year, we’ll be celebrating women in STEM and the organisations and advocates that support them with posts on our blog, Twitter, Facebook and our public Patreon page. We will also hold live webinars, with women from across the international STEM community talking about key developments in their fields.
Our epic content marathon will start at midnight on Kiritimati Island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and end a full 50 hours later at midnight on Baker Island and Howland Island, two uninhabited atolls which are actually further west than Kiritimati Island but which sit on the other side of the International Date Line.
We're really excited to be able to run ALD online again this year, ensuring that everyone around the world can get involved, regardless of the pandemic. So keep an eye on our social media accounts for details of how you can take part!
