This session is intended for leaders and organizers from local European Drupal associations, DrupalCamps, other community initiatives, as well as representatives from the Drupal Association (DA). Anyone involved in organizing, maintaining, or shaping the future of the European Drupal community is encouraged to attend. Together we will work towards a European Drupal entity.
Prerequisite
Outline
Over the past year, the Network of European Drupal Associations (NEDA), in collaboration with the DA, has been laying the groundwork for a European Drupal Federation—a proposed umbrella structure that can provide representation, shared governance, and sustainable collaboration between European groups and the Drupal Association.
This 2-hour working session will bring together community leaders from across Europe and the DA to:
* Share progress on the European Workgroup initiated at Drupal Dev Days and Drupaljam
* Discuss the goals, responsibilities, and added value of a European Drupal Federation
* Explore the model for governance, representation, and coordination that will be put in place
* Identify concrete next steps and working groups leading up to DrupalCon 2026
The goal is to come out of this session with shared clarity, actionable decisions, and a clear path forward.
This session will be hosted by NEDA members and DA members.
