Open Data Day (http://opendataday.org/) is a global celebration of freely available data that can be used for the public good. In 2018, Victory Workspace brought ODD to Contra Costa County for the first time.  Let's do it again!  Register now to guarantee your spot, and please come before 9:00 to register! Join us at Victory Workspace in Downtown Walnut Creek for a day of civic hacking!  We will use publicly available data sets to analyze social problems and help local governments improve the quality of life in our communities. Who should attend? Web Developers, Public Servants, Students, Designers, and anyone who wants to learn how to code, is looking for employment opportunities, and/or would like to volunteer their time to help our local community. For experienced developers this is a great opportunity to give back to the community and meet other local technologists. For concerned citizens who don’t program, this is a good chance to learn about the force that has transformed the Bay Area over the last few decades and to see how it can be harnessed for the public good. Oh, and did we mention the free food being donated by our sponsors!? Before we start hacking, we will learn about open data from government officials and open source technologies from technical experts. We will discuss how open data can be used to improve our communities. Organizers will then describe projects we can work on; we will also give you the opportunity to “pitch” project ideas of your own. We will then form teams and start hacking. We will have ample free wi-fi and access to free software development tools. At the end of the day, teams will discuss their projects, give demos, and the winning team will receive a $250 gift card to the Apple Store! We have limited capacity, so please RSVP if you are interested in attending!   Schedule: 8:30 AM Registration and breakfast 9:15 AM Opening presentation and lightning talks by government officials and tech experts 9:45 AM Project pitches 10:30 AM Start Hacking 12:30 PM Lunch 1:30 PM More Hacking 4:00 PM Project demos/Prizes Corporate Sponsors Miller Media, Kha Creation, Sunrise Bistro and Extreme Pizza City of Walnut Creek Projects: Help create a visualization showing the state of Walnut Creek’s neighborhoods.

Empower volunteers to help increase Census participation by creating an Adopt-a-Block system. Volunteers would electronically select a Census block to work on and then report back on their outreach efforts for that block.  

Civic Tech Toronto invites you to CodeAcrossTO - a civic hackathon where you can take on public challenges using data, design and development. No technical background is assumed nor required. _____________  CodeAcrossTO is a volunteer-run civic hackathon held each year on Open Data Day. We centre Toronto's community needs and bring together its talent across disciplines to seed solutions through design and technology. It's an all-ages, all-abilities event. Our format? Come for the challenges that speak explicitly to Toronto's sustainable future, facilitated by rad folks like Law & Design Colab (working to improve legal accessibility), OPIRG Toronto (environment/social justice research and action group), FreeGeek (educational and reusable tech, and Toronto Environment & Energy (driving Toronto's #TransformTO climate action plan forward). Attendees can join a challenge that interests them for the day. There are broadly four steps to our hackathon: 1. Research and map our community's diverse needs2. Think tools, sustainability, technology3. Build solutions in breakout groups4. Share progress Unlike traditional hackathons, we're not expecting a working prototype at the end of the day, but the foundation for a thoughtful solution to the problem at-hand. Think of CodeAcrossTO as a pop-up public process incubator: to build connections and have enough fun doing it that we continue long after the event is done. _____________  This year we're excited to announce our theme: Toronto's Take on Sustainable Development The UN's Sustainable Development Goals are a call for action by all countries to promote prosperity while protecting the planet. What are some Toronto-specific solutions for poverty, health, food, and the other UN Sustainable Development Goals? How do we design inclusive, collaborative solutions that work for our city and ultimately have a global impact on sustainability? Goal 1: End poverty in all its forms Goal 2: Zero Hunger Goal 3: Health Goal 4: Education Goal 5: Gender equality and women’s empowerment Goal 6: Water and Sanitation Goal 7: Energy Goal 8: Economic Growth Goal 9: Infrastructure, industrialization Goal 10: Inequality Goal 11: Cities Goal 12: Sustainable consumption and production Goal 13: Climate Change Goal 14: Oceans Goal 15: Biodiversity, forests, desertification Goal 16: Peace, justice and strong institutions Goal 17: Partnerships _____________  Our Challenges* Making our built environment more accessible Expanding access to reliable internet & hardware Reducing individual carbon footprints Reducing waste & energy consumption in our everyday spaces Expanding advocacy Legal Accessibility: Redesigning the Ontario Standard Form Lease *These challenges have been modified to reflect facilitator schedule changes. _____________  Location & Accessibility Artscape Daniels Launchpad is on the 4th floor of the East Tower on 130 Queens Quay East.
