Want to apply as a speaker, but still looking for a topic?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ve maybe been there: hearing your peers share their experiences and knowledge at your meetup group or WordCamp and you\u2019d like to step up: pay it forward and share yourself. But then there\u2019s always the next question: what would you talk about?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip: don\u2019t look too far for a subject. Share something you\u2019ve learnt recently or something you\u2019re long term passionate about. Or maybe even a rant (can be perfect for a lightning talk).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019d like some inspiration: we\u2019ve gathered loads of possible topics in a completely uncompleet list: cherry-pick whatever suits you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And bonus: why not challenge yourself with a subject? It\u2019s a win-win: you pick a topic you want to know more about yourself (for example \u2018CSS Grid\u2019, \u2018Creating a Gutenberg block myself\u2019, \u2018What\u2019s the best xx plugin\u2019, \u2026), set a realistic deadline & apply as a speaker to share your recently gained knowledge. Use your talk as the perfect stick \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(btw: WordCamp Europe made a list of topic ideas too: <\/em>https:\/\/apply.wp-europe.org\/ideas<\/em><\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practicalities for WordCamp Antwerp:<\/strong><\/em>
Talks can be held in Dutch, English and\/or French. Formats can be: workshops, talks and lightning talks. You can choose whatever subject and duration feels right for you. A short talk does not necessarily have to lack depth, for instance. Please mention in your application whether you expect your audience to have some kind of prior knowledge.<\/em>
