Tech Writers without Borders (TWWB) is looking to build a global community of technical communicators interested in helping charities, humanitarian organisations and other non-profits around the world to improve the quality of their documentation and training resources. TWWB first partnered with iNERDE, a US-based non-profit that provides science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education camps in African countries. TWWB created an online learning portal to help iNERDE's local teachers and assistants ans so much more. In this session, you will learn more about TWWB's work with iNERDE and the Agile tools and methods the team implemented to facilitate collaboration between volunteer teams from around the world. You’ll see video testimonials from iNERDE and see how to use your technical communication skills to make a real difference in the lives of others, while boosting your own personal and professional development. If you're really lucky, you might even learn how to build some really cool stuff like a marshmallow catapult!
