whykay 👩🏻💻🐈🏳️🌈 (she/her)It's March, and it's International Women's Day where the month is jam-packed of events, initiatives. Even here on DEV, if you haven't seen it already, you can submit your experience to their annual #SheCoded. I submitted mine so it's your turn if you haven't, plus this year's IWD theme is #ChooseToChallenge.
The newsletter this month is slightly changed, I am focussing more on Diversity in Tech events and other announcements. The general tech listings will now be linked to https://irish-diversity-in-tech.netlify.app/events/ (as the curated listings will be up-to-date)
Of course, we welcome general Irish tech announcements, opportunities, etc., and I will still have a section to do a shoutout in the newsletter.
📰 Here's the newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/3cb35a73a875/cg21-mar-iwd
