Diversity Scholarship
GoCon Canada is committed to building an accessible and inclusive conference with high-quality conversations that will grow the Go community in the Greater Toronto Area.
We are excited to announce that the application for the Diversity Scholarship is officially open.
Details of the Diversity Scholarship
The Diversity Scholarship is open to all underprivileged and/or underrepresented Golang developers, who want to further their education and establish their network, but lack financial means. Some examples of such groups include but not limited to women, LGBTQIA+, persons of color, disabled, indigenous persons, new graduates, full-time students, people experiencing temporary financial hardship.
The scholarship covers the ticket to the conference. If you need support with hotel and travel, please provide that information and we will do our best to support successful applicants. Unfortunately, at this time, we are unable to provide VISA support.
The number of slots is based on scholarship fund availability. The slots are filled on an on-going basis until April 25th, 2020. Please apply as soon as you can to have a better chance.
Think you are a good candidate? Please apply at Diversity Scholarship Application.
The scholarship would not be possible without our sponsors. If you would like to make our Golang community a more inclusive place, please check out our Sponsorship Prospectus.
