Learn about Drupal and its changes from your peers—Drupal users and experts who work in the nonprofit sector. Our summit is informal, featuring discussions led by subject-matter experts. 

This year has made us all more reliant on the web than ever before. Drupal is a mature and adaptable platform with an active community. In the nonprofit summit, we will talk about how organizations have made use of their Drupal websites to meet their goals in an increasingly complex world.

Together, we will reflect on how our websites must evolve when we are unable to see each other in person. How have these changes made our information and events more accessible to remote audiences? What else have we learned? How else have we changed in this last year? How will that affect our future?

This event is designed to give you time to network. Discuss your own ideas and questions about using Drupal in your organization. Build on what you learned during the main DrupalCon conference. Leave with a clarified  picture of what you can work on next. 

 

Who should attend?


The Nonprofit Summit is open to all nonprofit staff, volunteers, and service providers who are using, or considering using, Drupal as part of their technology stack.
