| 20 | +In September of 2022, the [SciPy Latin America](https://pythoncientifico.ar/) conference took place in Salta, Argentina. |
| 21 | +As part of the event, we organized a [scikit-learn sprint](https://pythoncientifico.ar/events/sprints/). |
| 22 | +The main idea was to introduce the participants to the open source world and help them make their first contribution. |
| 23 | +The sprint event was an in-person event. |
