With over 250 attendees converging at Nkumba University, WordCamp Entebbe 2019 was hugely successful. Now, after a three-year hiatus (thanks, COVID!), organizers are thrilled to welcome us back to beautiful Entebbe, Uganda, for a new opportunity to celebrate WordPress.

WordCamp Entebbe 2023

Nominate Good Citizens
As you know, WordPress is all about inclusion, community, and collaboration. WordCamp Entebbe is no different. If you notice someone going out of their way to exemplify WordPress values — welcoming fellow attendees, answering questions, and making the event more inclusive — stop by the registration table to nominate them as “exemplary citizens.”
Organizers will highlight good citizens on the event website after the conference concludes.
