Events

SahanaCamps

SSF runs SahanaCamps to bring disaster management and relief professionals together with software deployers and developers to explore the use of Sahana software through simulations and participatory discussions. SahanaCamps also provide technical training for software developers wanting to deploy or contribute to the Sahana Software Foundation. SahanaCamps have been held in India, Taiwan, Vietnam, Portugal and the USA.

Google Summer of Code

Google Summer of Code (GSoC) allows college and university students to learn professional software development skills and develop code that will be used in live products. SSF has participated in the Google Summer of Code internship program every year since 2006. Experienced SSF software developers mentor the students to provide a rich learning experience.
