Datathon 2020
Datathon 2020 was a hackathon organized by Civilab with the support of several organizations, including the National Innovation Strategy (span. ENI) and other civil and private organizations such as Wendá, Tomate Estudio and Cervepar. The objective was to promote the culture of open data as a tool to improve government transparency. The Datathon took place in September 2020, with 4 days of talks with 10 specialists, and then 3 days of hackathon to put into practice the knowledge acquired using the open data of the Paraguayan government. One of the proposals developed during this hackathon was the analysis of parliamentary data.
