Themenabend Gewerkschaft im IT-Sektor (22.04.2026)

🇩🇪 · CCCAC · Chaos Computer Club Aachen e.V.

Am 22. April ab 20 Uhr stellt sich die Brancheninitiative IT der FAU (Freie Arbeiter*innen Union) vor. Die globalgesellschaftliche Lage ist ernst und viele sind hoffnungslos. Wir wollen euch zeigen, wie man mit der eigenen Hoffnungslosigkeit umgeht und warum gerade wir, die im Tech-Sektor arbeiten und das Chaos zu dem machen was es ist, sich besonders gut dazu eignen basisdemokratische antikapitalistische Kämpfe auszufechten. Das braucht die richtige Problemanalyse und eine noch bessere Lösungsstrategie… Die Veranstaltung ist Teil des Aktionsmonats „Chaos+ trifft die FAU“. Alle Infos findet ihr hier: https://bit.fau.org/2026/03/05/grosse-ankuendigung-chaos-trifft-die-fau-aktionsmonat-april/ Die FAU Aachen ist eine basisdemokratische Selbstorganisation von Arbeiter*innen (Gewerkschaft) die mehr als nur ein paar Prozent mehr auf dem Lohnzettel erreichen wollen. Unser Ziel ist eine Wirtschafts- und Gesellschaftsordnung, die auf kollektiver Selbstverwaltung basiert. Wir setzen auf klassenkämpferische, direkte Aktionen und (internationale) Solidarität statt Sozialpartnerschaft und Standortlogik. Bei Fragen könnt ihr euch per Matrix an @fauac32:fau.org wenden. https://aachen.fau.org/

Registrace na ROBOTEM ROVNĚ 2026 startuje

🇨🇿 · PiSeC · Anna Jirásková

Vážení přátelé, kamarádi a všichni příznivci a příznivkyně robotiky! Opět nadešel ten správný čas pozvat vás na další ročník naší nejpopulárnější soutěže ROBOTEM ROVNĚ , která se letos koná všehovšudy již poosmnácté. Závodit lze v kategoriích robotů, autíček i RC vozidel! Tímto dáváme na vědomí, že registrace soutěžících je spuštěna. Registrační formulář naleznete uvnitř článku a přihlašovat se můžete do 16. května 2026 Soutěž se koná v sobotu 23. května 2026 a i letos zde bude k nalezení novinka z předloňska – třetí kategorie určená strojům na dálkové ovládání. Tato akce proběhne v rámci píseckých městských slavností Pískoviště 2026 . Tradičně se jí účastní české i zahraniční týmy, což přispívá k tomu, že je to akce již proslulá, atraktivní i pro veřejnost a hojně navštěvovaná. Vzhledem k tomu, že v tu dobu probíhá v Písku mnoho kulturních akcí souběžně, lze s sebou vzít celou rodinu s vědomím, že nikdo nebude zklamán. Jedná se o divácky nejnavštěvovanější soutěž celé robotické sezóny v České republice. Ročník 2025, jak jej zachytili autoři pořadu ‘Jihočeské minuty’ Kromě robotů a jejich majitelů se mohou zúčastnit i ti, kdo si na robota netroufají. Celkově máme tyto kategorie: – Roboti – autonomní vozítko, které jede a naviguje se po trase bez jakéhokoliv zásahu obsluhy. – Neřízená autíčka – upravená autíčka, která mají zablokované řízení a spouští se jen zapnutím vypínače. – Dálkově řízená autíčka – vozítka řízená dálkovým ovládáním. Momentka z vyhlašování vítězů 16. ročníku soutěže Pro všechny tři kategorie platí, že jejich cílem je zdolat naši 314 metrů dlouhou parkovou dráhu. I letos tak dostanou možnost vydobýt si svou chvilku slávy RC amatéři libovolného věku, z nichž může závodit v kategorii, která je mu nejbližší, nebo se jich postupně pokusit zdolat i vícero. Máte-li pochyby o tom, do které kategorie by právě váš závodní stroj měl být zařazen, neváhejte se ozvat organizátorům, kteří vám (nejen) v tomto ochotně poradí. A pokud náhodou žádný závodní stroj dohromady nedáte, rozhodně přijďte alespoň fandit. V tom případě můžete přispět třeba svým hlasem do divácké soutěže “ Miss robot “ (bude probíhat po celou dobu závodu). Kdy : Sobota 23. května 2026 Kde: Písek, Palackého sady – start na straně u pošty GPS : 49°18″32,103N 14°09″4,775E Za kolik : Vstup pro diváky je zdarma, v kategorii autíček + vozítek na dálkové ovládání je start také zdarma – pouze za roboty zaplatí účastníci startovné 200 Kč. Pro koho : Pro všechny věkové kategorie (0-100+), muže i ženy, dívky i chlapce, nováčky i zkušené, místní i z daleka cestující. Zkrátka pro kohokoliv! Co získáte: Zajímavé zážitky, zajištěný oběd pro všechny účastníky s roboty a také kontakty na další kolegy a kamarády, zájemce o robotiku, elektroniku, radioamatérské vysílání a jiné technické obory… nu a v případě výhry i nějakou tu cenu Těšíme se na všechny účastníky i diváky!

Bridging the Gap: Introducing CcHUB’s GATEWAY Program

🇳🇬 · CcHUB (Co-creation Hub Nigeria) · CcHUB Communications

If you are a young Nigerian, you know the drill: finish school, send out CVs into the void, and refresh your email, hoping for a reply that never comes. Meanwhile, your timeline is full of conversations about the digital economy. You see people making money online—some of it real, some of it just noise—and it’s hard to filter the facts from the hype. You want a clear path from where you are right now, whether that’s sitting at home with no experience or freelancing with inconsistent results, to earning a steady, dignified income. The GATEWAY Program exists to close that gap. Launching as a strategic partnership between Co-creation HUB (CcHUB) and the Mastercard Foundation, GATEWAY is a structured career engine designed to place 340,000 young Nigerians into legitimate, high-value gig work over the next five years. Not Just a Certificate. GATEWAY’s goal isn’t just to hand you a certificate; it’s to make you a professional that global clients, agencies, and top companies trust with their business. Whether you are interested in UI/UX Design, Digital Marketing, Graphic Design, or Video Production and Editing, the program focuses on teaching you exactly what employers are paying for right now. We help you ship real work, build a portfolio that stands out, and connect you to the platforms and employers who need your talent. GATEWAY is part of CcHUB’s work as a leading pan-African creative and innovation ecosystem enabler—building talent pipelines, strengthening innovation hubs, and partnering across the continent to ensure that innovation becomes a practical tool young people can use to transform their lives. “But I Don’t Have a Laptop…” We know that equipment is often one of the biggest walls standing between talent and opportunity. You shouldn’t be locked out of the digital economy just because you don’t own a laptop or have 24/7 fiber internet. GATEWAY is solving this by partnering with local tech hubs and community centers across 10 states: Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Kaduna, Kano, Abuja (FCT), Delta, Edo, Rivers, and Enugu. These hubs will serve as your office if you need it. You will have access to computers, reliable internet, and a dedicated workspace at no cost to you. Whether you need a physically accessible space or simply a safe, supportive environment to work away from home, these hubs are designed to ensure you can learn without worry. Where Do You Fit In? The program is designed for inclusivity, with a specific focus on young women, Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), and displaced youth. However, the structure is built to meet you at your current level: Growth Pathway: For skilled digital and creative talents seeking to build stronger portfolios and find gig work. Foundations Pathway: For beginners who need to learn the core digital and creative skills for gig work. You don’t have to decide this on day one; your application and assessments will guide us to the pathway that makes the most sense for you. A Message from Leadership “The jobs of today are no longer tied to where you live, but to what you can do. With GATEWAY, young Nigerians can earn from businesses down the road and from clients halfway across the world.” — Ojoma Ochai, Managing Director, CcHUB. Registration has now commenced on the GATEWAY portal ( gateway.cchub.africa ), opening opportunities for young people to build skills, deepen their expertise, build stronger portfolios, and access global gig work.
