Hi Tor friends!

notes:
- nvjacobo and marco19_ did presentations on Tor in Cumbre de
Contribuidores de Open Source Software, Guadalajara, MX https://ccoss.org/
- marco19_ is finishing some Spanish docs about the different tools
around Tor
- marco19_ will run an activity at IPN, MX
- Antonela did a short presentation during the MediaParty19, Argentina,
early this month.
- Tierra Comun Coop is doing some infographic (almost done for review)
in Spanish, and some trainings on Tor with Journalists and HRDs in
Mexico funded by OTF. To get retro on the tools we are using a self
hosted limesurvey instance, So we'll share this and hope we can talk
more with UX team.

Hi Tor's friends,
We'll hold our monthly Global South meeting on September 27, Friday, 16
*UTC*[1] at IRC, *OFTC*[2], #tor-south. If you need a little help using
IRC, read the *IRC for complete beginners*[3].
If you are already a contributor, bring your updates, questions, or just
join us, but if you still not a volunteers and are thinking about
contributing to the Tor Project, a good start is to read *Get
Involved*[4] and attend meetings, that are open to all.
It's not of today that Project Tor strives to reach people worldwide
through education in privacy technologies. There're a effort to reach
out to a more diverse and engaged audience of human rights defenders in
the Global South. User Feedback Program started two years ago, which
combines training with user experience research.
A post was recently posted on Tor's Blog: *Reaching People Where They
Are*[5] explaining better Tor's Global South Community's work with the
UX Community.
See y'all friday!
