Hello fellow Pythonistas,


I trust this email finds you all in good health and high spirits.


I am working on a conference presentation focused on African Python
communities. Our community has grown tremendously over the years, and I
believe there are countless inspiring stories waiting to be shared. That's
where you come in!


Do you have a story to tell about Python making a positive impact in your
community? Maybe it's about your own journey, a community project, or just
something remarkable. One good example is Python in Nigeria: when it
started, Python was hardly taught in schools. But today, Python is part of
the curriculum in many schools, thanks to events like DjangoGirls and
meetups.

Another exciting thing is that Python jobs have increased in Nigeria since
our community began in 2016.


Your story could be equally inspiring, and it deserves to be heard. Please
respond to this email if you have a story, no matter how big or small, that
you believe should be shared with the wider Python community. Let's
celebrate our achievements and inspire others to continue pushing the
boundaries of what Python can achieve in Africa.


*"Until lions tell their tale, the story of the hunt will always glorify
the Hunter"* - *African Proverb*


*"If we don't tell our own stories, no one else will." - Mira Nair*



I look forward to hearing from you.
