The CarpentryCon Task Force
The CarpentryCon Task Force’s mission is organise and host a meeting every two years to bring together members of the global Carpentries community and people with similar interests. In 2018, the Task Force organised the very successful inaugural CarpentryCon. A call will be going out for new members to join the Task Force to build CarpentryCon 2021 in South Africa.
