= Fedora Women Day, 2017 =  
== Dates/Location ==


== Event Description ==
Fedora Women Day (FWD) is a day of celebration to help raise awareness and thanks for the women contributors across the Fedora Project. Fedora Women Day marks the anniversary of the [[Women|Fedora Women]] team. The event is headed by Fedora's [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Diversity Diversity team].
During the month of September, we'd like to help bring women contributors across Fedora together with one another. This is a great time to network with other women in Fedora, listen to stories from others in the project, and recognize each other's achievements. This event is primarily a virtual event, and there are plans to do a group audio and/or video call with other women and groups across the world. If you are a local contributor, you are encouraged to try organizing a local meetup. If you are trying to organize an event within your region, contact your regional [[Ambassadors]] for budgetary concerns.
