On November 2nd and 3rd, Making Awesome will host the Tallahassee site for America's Datafest - Migration in the Americas. This is a two day (and for the intrepid, one night) hackathon focusing on the topic of migration in the Americas. Tallahassee will join sites from across North, Central and South America in building new solutions for challenges relating to migration and migrants. Participants will include programmers, engineers, journalists, NGOs, data scientists and subject matter experts

Suggested topics include finance, employment, safety, human trafficing, health, public perception of migrants, etc.

In Tallahassee, the event will take place at Making Awesome, Tallahassee's Arts and Technology Makerspace. Anyone can participate. You can form a team in advance or become part of a team at the beginning of the event.
