Hi, I would like to come to Fosdem next year (with my son maybe) and I would like to know how "Fosdem Junior" was organized last year. is it organized as a workshop ? is there a maximum limit for booking ? Any personal experience ?
Yes, it was two days full of different workshops, in two rooms at the same time. No talks/lectures - kids would be bored, obviously. You had to book seats for specific workshops here https://codeclub.org/en/clubs/c0468f47-a1a4-43b6-b7f0-170a7d98b30c This was the schedule: https://archive.fosdem.org/2025/schedule/track/junior/
Expect changes, because Junior is growing as the concept.
It was great to see as a parent, and my small one was overjoyed and didn't want FOSDEM to end :)
If you want to help children understand why they should go there, you can also show them this movie https://fsfe.org/activities/ada-zangemann/movie (available in different languages) or read the book with them (several translations here https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/fsfe/ada-zangemann/ ) :) Best regards, Matthias -- Matthias Kirschner - President - Free Software Foundation Europe Revaler Straße 19, 10245 Berlin, Germany | t +49-30-27595290 Registered at Amtsgericht Hamburg, VR 17030 |(fsfe.org/support) Contact (fsfe.org/about/kirschner) Weblog k7r.eu/blog.html Ada & Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice cream - For everyone from 6 - 106 years - ada.fsfe.org
