Dear all, OKFN Labs <http://okfnlabs.org/> is launching Labs Sprints<http://sprints.okfnlabs.org/>, a new initiative to create data-driven applications around a specific topic within a very short timeframe – a single week. As we start this, we’re looking for partners to help us frame the questions that our apps will aim to explore. To create such high-impact apps which can serve policy-making, our team needs a partner from the topic area who understands the background and the issue in question and can help us guide in the creations of a meaningful product.
Energy Data <http://sprints.okfnlabs.org/energy/> is theme for the first OKF Lab, taking place in Berlin 1-8 October, 2012, and bringing together a small team of coders, designers, data wranglers, technologists and policy experts. The theme is structured broadly to incorporate a wide range of sub-topics e.g. renewable energy resources and energy efficiency, fossil fuels and traditional energy structures, electricity demand and supply, government spending around energy policies as well as emissions from energy use in transport, industry, etc. Please, read more on the blog post: http://blog.okfn.org/2012/07/25/okfn-energy-lab-call-for-partners/ -- Velichka Dimitrova Project and Community Coordinator for Labs Coordinator for Economics and Energy Projects Open Knowledge Foundation http://okfnlabs.org/ | http://openeconomics.net
