Wil je graag wat meer te weten komen over 'Open Data', en over de rol die het kan spelen in jouw leven? Wil je graag weten waarom Open Data zo belangrijk zijn voor de toekomst van Gent? Kom dan naar onze Lego-workshop! In deze creatieve sessie gaan we aan de slag met Lego. In een mum van tijd leer je wat open data is en hoe je ermee een sport-app kan bouwen. Iedereen is welkom ongeacht leeftijd of achtergrond.  Waarom willen we jou erbij?  Het antwoord is eenvoudig: omdat jij de toekomst van Gent bent. Omdat jij ongetwijfeld veel waardevolle ideeën zal hebben. Omdat jij misschien ook uit ervaring weet waaraan er nog nood is, wanneer het gaat over sporten en bewegen in Gent. We laten onze fantasie gedurende twee uur de vrije loop!   Deze workshop is dus voornamelijk een creatieve denkoefening, die niet moet leiden tot concrete realisaties. Dit neemt echter niet weg dat de resultaten van de Lego-sessie toekomstige projecten kunnen inspireren. Praktische informatie Papieren tickets hoeven niet. Je kan jezelf online registreren via de knop 'aanmelden' (in het groen rechts bovenaan deze pagina). Dan beland je automatisch op onze gastenlijst. Lukt het niet? Geen probleem: stuur een mailtje naar pieterjan.pauwels@digipolis.gent, onze portier. Hij fixt dan wel een plekje voor jou! De workshop zal doorgaan in het splinternieuwe bibliotheek gebouw De Krook. Toegang is gratis, maar de plaatsen zijn beperkt. De exacte zaal zal later nog doorgegeven worden.  Wat is Apps for Ghent? Apps for Ghent is een jaarlijkse hackathon waarbij burgers, ontwikkelaars en designers op één dag een digitale toepassing moeten bouwen voor de stad aan de hand van open data. Zij starten om 09:00 en moeten stoppen met werken om 15:00. Als deelnemer van de lego workshop mag je nadien de presentaties van de verschillende teams volgen en horen wat zij gemaakt hebben aan de hand van deze data. Liever inschrijven voor de hackathon?
