Amplifying community organizing with technology

3:35 PM – 4:25 PM, August 16

Second Stage Panel

Community organizing runs on extremely limited capacity and often lacks access to technical resources and expertise. However, technologists who have these skills are often disconnected from the communities that can benefit from their support, and even the most well-intentioned collaborators can speak different metaphorical languages. Come hear from seasoned technologists who have successfully built technology that supports community organizing, what they learned in the process, how they would do things differently, and advice for getting involved.
