AlterConf Sessions are local events that provide safe opportunities for marginalized people in the tech and gaming industries to learn from and support one another. By highlighting the powerful voices and positive initiatives of local community members, they build hope and strengthen the community’s resolve to create safer, healthier spaces for
everyone.
The Sessions go beyond the limited definitions and basic discussions of diversity to create a deeper, more nuanced conversation. Each Session features a wide range of speakers delivering critical analyses of tech and gaming culture and presenting their vision for what their community can be.
