+ Topic:

FWD50 is an annual gathering of the world’s leading public sector innovators. In this debrief, three Civic Tech Toronto co-organizers will share highlights and insights from this year's conference.

FWD50 is an annual event, and this year they asked a question that is familiar to Civic Tech Toronto—"How do we use technology to bring us together?"

Please bring your thoughts & reflections on what this question means to you (in your life, in your practice, and in Civic Tech) for discussion after the talk!

About Civic Tech Toronto:
Our weekly civic tech hacknights bring together Torontonians (designers, coders, urban planners, government staff, mappers, policy-makers, students, communications strategists, community organizers, and more) who share an interest in making Toronto more responsive, prosperous, sustainable, and equitable through design, tech, and data. Come and be part of it!
