Data for Democracy Hackathon - Seattle

Data for Democracy looks for projects that have a strong collaborative nature, and leverage data and technology to create positive social impact. We engage in a mix of community-led projects, which are proposed and self-organized by Data for Democracy members, and partner-led projects, which involve more formal collaboration with city governments and local and international NGOs.
