Open Interests Hackathon in London, 24-25 November

The European Journalism Centre and the Open Knowledge Foundation, sponsored by Knight-Mozilla OpenNews, invite you to the Open Interests Hackathon to track the the interests and money flows which shape European policy.

When: 24-25 November

Where: Google Campus Cafe, 4-5 Bonhill Street, EC2A 4BX London

How EU money is spent is an issue that concerns everyone who pays taxes to the EU. As the influence of Brussels lobbyists grows, it is increasingly important to draw the connections between lobbying, policy-making and funding. Journalists and activists need browsable databases, tools and platforms to investigate lobbyists’ influence and where the money goes in the EU. Join us and help build these tools!

Open Interests Europe brings together developers, designers, activists, journalists and other geeks for two days of collaboration, learning, fun, intense hacking and app building.
