Code for Germany: Reconnecting Citizens and Society


Mark Fonseca Rendeiro Host Fiona Krakenbürger Guest Julia Kloiber Guest

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 in communities around the world. 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 June 19th to the 21st at Wikimedia Deutschland in Berlin.
