What could a coding jam for charitable purposes look like? We want to answer this question together in the workshop and develop a concept.

The context:
Digitalization offers many opportunities. For example, for efficient project management or digital collaboration. However, digitalization (especially during the initial changeover) also costs time, money and nerves. Many non-profit organizations lack the necessary resources. This is precisely where digital volunteering comes in, bringing these organizations together with volunteer professionals from the IT and digital sector. Digital volunteering thus creates digital solutions and products that can be used directly by non-profit organizations and their target groups. The experts from the companies get to know new fields of learning and working environments and can effectively contribute their knowledge right on their doorstep.

The goal:
Digital volunteering sounds like a good and sensible thing. But can it also work as part of a coding jam/hackathon? And if so, what could a successful digital volunteering jam at “Türen Öffnen” look like?
In this workshop, we want to get to the bottom of this question and develop a concept for a coding jam session at “Türen Öffnen”. Among other things, the workshop will clarify:
  • Requirements for a successful jam session
  • Digital projects for which this format is suitable
  • Handling of individual vs. multiple projects within a session
  • Recommended time frames and necessary preparatory measures
  • The roles and optimal timing of the involvement of various participants
  • Suitable implementation formats (online, hybrid)
  • The basic requirements in terms of infrastructure and information

The target group:
Have you ever taken part in a jam session/ hackathon, organized one, have general experience in project management or can you imagine taking part in such an event? 
- Then we need YOU and your experience in the workshop! 

Share your knowledge and experience for a good cause, help shape the future of digital volunteering, contribute to promoting cooperation between companies and non-profit organizations and take the opportunity for a change of perspective and of course to meet new people.
We look forward to your participation. 

Recommended for: The workshop is suitable for anyone who wants to help create and contribute ideas. We particularly welcome people who have either organised events or taken part in a coding session/jam before and are willing to share their experiences.
