How does the distributed HDSA work?

The 1-week workshop program (HDSA) will take place in different locations (nodes): Hackers & Designers and Varia in Amsterdam, Bongani Ricky Masuku in Harare, Prototype PGH in Pittsburgh, Mz* Baltazar's Lab in Vienna
Each node has capacity to facilitate a group of 10-15 participants
The different nodes will take care of a safe learning environment that is considerate of different levels of knowledge as well as the current COVID restrictions in their respective locations.
During the HDSA there will be moments you will be working with your node and other moments where all nodes connect, exchange and synch
The HDSA workshop program is comprised of 5 'workshop scripts' – workshops prepared by the different HDSA nodes. You will be able to follow all workshops in the different locations synchronously and asynchronously.
All workshops are considerate of different skill levels and different backgrounds. Additional support will be provided by the respective nodes
Participation is free of charge. Donations to the different nodes will be welcomed. Additional material costs, daily lunches will have to be covered by the participants.
