Open Datathon reUkraine is a grant competition to support open data projects in Ukraine. The finalists will take part in a 100-day marathon to develop and implement digital solutions.
The competition aims to increase the use of open data to create new digital tools and support existing ones related to anti-corruption, social benefit, improving the efficiency and transparency of government, and overcoming the negative effects of the war.
“Apply by November 15 and help build a transparent and accountable country. After all, open data is the basis for the development of democracy and rapid post-war reconstruction,” said Fedorov.
The competition was organized jointly with USAID/UK Aid by the Transparency and Accountability in Public Administration and Services/TAPAS project. The project partner is the East Europe Foundation.
