CivicTechSweden is a cooperation between organisations, networks and the public sector working for social and environmental goals and making use of digital technologies. By organising hackathons and meetups with different themes we wish to raise the status for the civic tech sector and bring together developers, designers, hackers, activists, innovators and anyone sharing the same interests and values. Hackathons

We organise hackathons and meetups to promote civic-tech development together with different actors from civil society and the municipality.

The projects will have three different themes: Sharing is caring: Collaborative economy, the commons and sustainable consumption. Power to the people: Democracy, participation and transparency. * I like to move it: Sustainable transportation, travel and mobility.

Guidelines

1) The project should be about developing or using new technologies in order to promote an increased participation in social movements, non-profit associations, democratic political processes and civil society in general.

2) The results of the project should be made available to the public.
