Melbourne Housing Hackathon

An enormous portion of YIMBY Melbourne's impact is underpinned by our volunteers' strong skills in data and technology.

Now, our first ever Housing Hackathon is an opportunity for volunteers to come together and work on a series of high-impact projects that will multiply the organisation's impact going forward. All in one action-packed weekend.

Whether you're an experienced programmer, someone who's played around in Python a little, or are interested in learning something new—this is the weekend for you.

Project types already lined up include:

• data analysis & communication
• data engineering & tools creation
• full-featured web applications

Previous & ongoing projects include:

• Housing Targets modelling
  
• Council agenda scrapers
• Walkability index

There is also the opportunity to pitch your own project through this form here. Specific projects will be announced closer to the day. 

Snacks and drinks and networking provided!
