Code for Germany: Reconnecting Citizens and Society




Source Code Berlin show

Summary: Over the past year a movement of coders, artists, journalists and concerned citizens have joined together in a way that could change the long disfunctional relationship between citizens and government or citizens and societal issues. What they're doing is called Civic Tech, and while the term itself is new, the area is growing quickly and making a difference is what happens in our communities. To better explain it we have two very special guests from the Code For Germany project.. Fiona Krakenbürger and Julia Kloiber. Also on today's program a special announcement, the call for papers for our Enthusiastic Con taking place from the 19th to the 21st in Berlin this June.
