The easiest way to let people know about what events you have in store is through our Global Events Calendar. By adding your event to this calendar (for free) you will be able to promote your event to youth all over the world. The events calendar will not only allow you to upload all the basic details of your event (day, time, location, website), but it will also act as a mini website for participants at your event! What do I mean by this?

Well, once your event is submitted and approved by a TakingITGlobal staff member your event will appear in the events listing. If you go to any event you will see that there is lots that you could be doing. For example, go to the World Youth Congress event page. If you look at this page and scroll down you will see some of the neat features:

-You can add documents associated to the event
-Write blogs letting people know what is happening in the event. People also attending the event can write their own blogs too!
-Start a discussion
-Upload photos from the event. You can either upload from TakingITGlobal or through Flickr

Lastly, TIG members who are attending your event can say that they are attending which means that they can start collaborating prior to the event!

Getting Started:

Step 1: Go to Add Your Event

Step 2: Once your event has been submitted a TakingITGlobal staff member will have to approve your event. We do this as we want to help ensure that the submitted event is legitimate! When your event has been approved you will receive an e-mail letting you know that the event has now been added to the Events Calendar.

Step 3: You will now be able to add blogs, upload brochures, and start discussions with people that are attending your event! And the best thing now is that youth from all over the world will be able to find out about your event!
