Announcing the Fall Change Seminar: Noon Tuesdays at CSE2 271
by Kurtis Heimerl 14 Sep '22

14 Sep '22

Hello Everyone, In preparation for the Fall quarter, I want to invite you all to register for the one credit Change Seminar (CSE 590 C1, SLN: 13513) on Tuesdays from 12-1pm in 271 CSE2 (The Bill and Melinda Gates Center). Change (http://change.washington.edu) is a group of faculty, students, and staff at the UW who are exploring the role of information and communication technologies (ICT) in improving the lives of underserved populations, particularly in the developing world (though domestically as well). We cover topics such as global health, education, micro finance, agricultural development, and general communication, and look at how technology can be used to improve each of these areas. We are in the process of scheduling speakers, so stay tuned to our calendar (http://is.gd/3PkTF) or mailing list (http://is.gd/3PlkS) for more information. Food will also be provided. Please consider enrolling. If you are unable to enroll, feel free to come to any of the meetings you are interested in attending! The seminar is available for all UW students and the content is designed to be widely accessible. We encourage students from all departments to enroll/attend if interested. The first week will be "organizing", with the goal of sourcing some speakers from the wider UW community. Please forward this message to any other relevant mailing lists, and we hope to see you on Tuesday October 4th at noon in Room 203 of the Paul Allen Center. Thanks, -- Website: https://kurti.sh/ Public Key: https://flowcrypt.com/pub/kheimerl@cs.washington.edu
