About us
We’re the Cologne chapter of CorrelAid, a network of volunteer data enthusiasts using their passion for social good.
We team up with non-profit organizations on project-based collaborations – helping them make sense of their data, measure their impact, and tackle real-world challenges.
Here in Cologne, we connect data enthusiasts, non-profits, and civic initiatives in the Bonn/Cologne/Düsseldorf area to work on local projects. From exploring open data to supporting community organizations, our goal is to make a measurable difference together.
Everyone is welcome to join our sessions – whether you’re a beginner or an expert – and learn, share, and contribute along the way. If you care about making the world better with data – or just want to see what’s possible – join us!
