Vaughan-Nichols
Mon 15 Jul 2024
A "Youth and Open Source" panel was held at the United Nations (UN) Open
Source Program Office (OSPO) for Good conference in the UN building in
Manhattan. There was only one little problem with it. To quote Ruth
Ikegah, a young Nigerian open source project manager, "We need more
young people here because I see a lot of old people here."
