Project description
TICTeC is the world’s only conference dedicated to exploring how Civic Technologies are impacting societies across the globe. TICTeC convenes pioneers of civil society, research and technology, to showcase and scrutinise innovative digital solutions to complex societal challenges. At its most effective, Civic Tech can save lives, protect environments, and mobilise citizen task forces in times of crisis. TICTeC 2024 explores the role of civic tech in: - Safeguarding and advancing democracy where it is under threat - Tackling the climate emergency We provide travel and accommodation grants for delegates from underfunded organisations operating in less open jurisdictions, with a focus on the global south. TICTeC is so much more than just helping to bring together the best minds in civic tech and digital democracy; it bolsters the global quality of digital democracy in the long term, solidifying an international network of digital democracy specialists armed with the skills and knowledge to instigate real change in how democracy can be developed and practised, for the benefit of citizens everywhere. It fosters collaboration for a more effective civil society. “TICTeC has allowed us to develop a network of like-minded partners to bounce ideas off of and to partner with on our work”
