Quadrature Communication Camp

Do you like freedom of speech? and the Internet? Are you good with visual, graphical, sound creation? Do you know how to code? As a citizen, you want to have your say in the public debate? La Quadrature du Net is organising its communication camp, a get-together to take part in our communication and awareness campaigns on our important issues and ongoing dossier.

La Quadrature du Net is a citizen group defending a free and open Internet.

What is a stake is universal: a free and open Internet implies the conditions which guarantee each and everyone the right to freedom of expression in the current and coming digital environments.

What?

We are organising a 3-days event (from October 19th, 14:00 to October 21st) to gather and create "communication and information elements related to La Quadrature du Net's message (freedom of expression online, sharing, Net neutrality...).

By getting an important number of people together in a fun setting, we hope to get everyone to bring their creativity and help in different domains.

Participation will be possible in our office as well as online.

From 14:00 on Friday 19th of October 2012 until Sunday 21st of October 2012 in the evening.

While the QCC will take place in a physical space, it will also take place online so that everyone may participate even if they can't be physically present.

Creations will be put online as the QCC take place.

  • The different workgroups can use the wiki to list what they are up to.
