Welcome to NYC School of Data — a community conference that demystifies the policies and practices around civic data, technology, and service design. This year’s conference kicks off NYC’s annual Open Data Week & features OVER 30 sessions organized by NYC’s civic technology, data, and design community! Our conversations & workshops will feed your mind and empower you to improve your neighborhood. Follow the conversation #nycSOdata on twitter and tune into our live stream (provided by the Internet Society of New York).
This workshop will highlight some of the different ways individuals in New York City can use data to identify potential root causes driving complex social issues, and create opportunities to address said issues in more informed ways, regardless of education level and technical knowledge. This workshop will be hands-on, and necessitate participant engagement.
