technology-led, hands-on training sessions and break-out discussion.
This TechCamp will focus on advancing each participant’s projects in

environment; and human rights, particularly for marginalized groups.
All expenses (travel, lodging, and meals) will be paid by the
Department of State.

your talented colleagues and friends, especially YALI Network members,
who should participate in this TechCamp.
