Code for All is a global civic tech network that connects over 350,000 people from over 20 countries. In 2019, the network enabled members to share knowledge on open legislation, digital citizen engagement, and empowering the public sector. Highlights from members included mapping initiatives in Africa, open data conferences in Kosovo, and hackathons and skills training in Pakistan. Going forward, Code for All aims to create opportunities, measure impact, and scale programs that work to further civic technology globally.
