An interesting DC event ... Public Good App House Festival

[Steven Clift]

Whoa, the Public Media Camp Google Group hasn't had a post since 2012. So here is a blast to revive the past.

I am helping with outreach for another DC-based tech innovation event in the tech4good space. More a cousin to tech in media, but I thought you campers might be interested.

Check it out. - Steven Clift, P.S. You might also be interested in my unrelated Civic Technology and Open Government Facebook Group.

WHAT IS IT?

The Public Good App House Festival will bring together over 300 participants to learn how public good technology projects are positively impacting our communities and our world.

Held over three days and, in festival style, in eight locations, this Washington, D.C. event will provide opportunities for technologists, community activists, professionals from nonprofit organizations and foundations, and interested community members to connect with one another.

They will engage in sessions on participatory development methodologies, learn about active projects in the Americas, and discuss ways to measure and describe collective impact across similar and related technologies that originate across regions.

Attendees will have a chance to learn about innovative social good technologies, how teams are using participatory methodologies, and how we are all measuring impact and systemic change.
