Civic hacknight #420 - Civic Tech Toronto principles and governance (VIRTUAL)

*This is the virtual registration for this event. To attend in person, please RSVP here.

This week we're turning the spotlight on ourselves! We're proud of our principles, and how we've put those into practice -- it's the reason this volunteer-run community is still going strong after over eight years. In tonight's presentation, Gabe will highlight Civic Tech Toronto's pretty neat structure, and share details about our newly-relaunched steering committee. (Including opportunities to volunteer!)

Gabe Sawhney is one of the co-founders of Civic Tech Toronto.

About Us:

• 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!
