International Networking Program
Connect global civic tech communities with technology.
Introduction
Our project goal
Taiwan’s open source and open culture community are very active. There are almost more than ten large-scale international conferences held in Taiwan a year. We would love to see more and more Taiwan-based open source contributors stand on the international stage. In the meantime, we also hope we can bridge the gap between the global and local community.
In 2019, we hope we can foster more cooperations between local communities and international organizations. In this case, many cross-domain projects, such as cooperation between information security experts and human rights activists, can be developed and become the support for the civic tech community. .
