For public policy folks, you can take: a) Kaggle tasks aimed at poverty reduction: https://www.kaggle.com/c/costa-rican-household-poverty-prediction b) The 'Kaggle' for development and public policy, 'Driven Data' https://www.drivendata.org/

Also, here's a neat example of mass collaboration for real-time economic data from the ground: https://www.premise.com/

I'm aiming to specialize in using NLP on language data for development and education policy. Any similar recommendations (like those above) are more than welcome! Thanks.
