Open Data Breakout Sessions

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

This working session will tie together the themes that emerge during the day’s civic innovation conversations. This time is a chance for local organizations working on open data and digital justice issues to get to know members of the community who are interested in using that information. The session will be driven by your participation, so come with questions, problems, ideas, or challenges that you see in your own neighborhood. Data providers will also share what’s working and what’s not in their community engagement efforts. Even if you aren’t able to attend the sessions earlier in the day, all are welcome at this breakout. No experience working with open data or technical experience is required! All ages are welcome.
