This is the schedule of the Ukrainian Wikiconference 2024, which will take place on 19-20 October online in Zoom and on 26-27 October offline in Kyiv. For the foreign audience, an English-language part with foreign speakers may be of interest. You can see this schedule in Ukrainian here.

All sessions of the conference will be in Ukrainian, except sessions by foreign speakers. They will be in English, but with consecutive interpreting to Ukrainian, and they are marked as such (marked in pink color for better visibility).

Also, remember that the Ukrainian time (UTC+3, EEST) is given in the timetable, which can differ from your local time.
