There are many things that might help you, others might not work in your region. Depends on the environment. ===== Unequal knowledge ===== When you have some people interested and joining your meetings, you could think about having a little talk marathon. Not only the most experienced attendees must hold the talks, it also makes sense when the beginners take over a talk about a given topic. Because they will deal with the topic - they learn. The experts then can correct during/after the talk. ===== Talks ===== There are many slide resources on the net that are often under CC licenses. When you work a bit into it, you should be able to present them and answer the questions of your attendees.
