Outreach, Networking
The International Summit for Community Wireless Networks truly was an international affair. It brought together 200 attendees from over 20 different countries, including Thailand, India, Cameroon, Kenya, Argentina, Brazil and Canada, among others. Participants discussed a wide variety of topics related to local wireless networks, from technical subjects such as wireless routing protocols, to issues of community engagement and digital literacy, to policy discussions about the use of unlicensed spectrum, the range of frequencies used by Wi-Fi technologies.
