To give you a simple answer, use a search engine with gpg, key, signing,
party as keywords, maybe even use web of trust, to get a wealth of
information.

People will want to verify you are who you claim to be before they will
want to sign your key so usually requires meeting in meatspace and
reliable photo ID (i.e. passport or the like, something that could get you
through a border).
