WordCamp Jinja 2024 is scheduled for Thursday, 5th September to Friday, 6th September 2024, at The Innovation Village, Plot 5 Main Street, Jinja, Uganda as our main venue. This event is our annual WordPress conference in Jinja, Eastern Uganda, organized since 2022 by the WordPress Jinja Meetup Community. It has grown to become one of the largest annual community tech events in Jinja City and the eastern region, bringing together diverse attendees, including developers, designers, online publishers, students, educators, and entrepreneurs from Uganda, East Africa, and beyond.
We are thrilled to announce a lineup of local and international speakers from who will share their expertise and insights on various topics and everything to do with WordPress.
