7 years ago This session sounds like it really aligns with the focus of the Digital Inclusion space. I like the focus on participants leaving with concrete ideas about how to leverage their skills for justice work. I'd love to include it in the Learning Forum.

What will happen in your session?
Participants will work together to crowdsource data and develop solutions to racial justice issues, with a focus on police violence. This will be a hands-on workshop where each participant will learn how to leverage their particular skillset (design, development, data science, research, communications, etc) towards making systemic changes in their communities.
What is the goal or outcome of your session?
This session will teach participants how to use their skills and talents for good, by engaging in a radically inclusive approach to addressing social justice issues. Activities will range from collecting and analyzing data, identifying and evaluating effectiveness of potential solutions, and developing technologies that can engage people in advocacy at scale.
If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.
I'll need to connect my MacBook to a projector or other screen.
