2017 is here. Are you ready?

Data For A Cause

Are you on the lookout for a meaningful project for 2017? Do you love data but aren’t really fulfilled by the kind of work you do at the moment? Do you feel like you are ready to make a difference with data, and aren’t sure where to start?

Let 2017 be the year your work actually makes a difference in the world.

This year we are going to challenge ourselves to help solve some of the biggest questions with data. We are going to use open source data, and also partner with NGOs, charities, and foundations to get access to their data, to make a difference. This is going to be big! You will get access to datasets that inspire you to ask deep questions, and which challenge your skills. You work will be seen by thousands of people around the world.

Can you participate? If you have skills in data visualization, analytics, information design, statistics… You are a fit!

Don’t have these skills? You can help by spreading the word about the challenge!

If you have been looking for meaningful work, something beyond a pretty data visualization, this is it. This is a great way to commit to challenging yourself and putting your work to use for a good cause!

Make more than a resolution for 2017: Join the 2017 data for a cause challenge.
