With my experience running Open Data Durban, Africa's first city-focused open data lab, we will unpack the elements that would go into an inclusive digital city toolkit (for e.g. digital tools, technical infrastructure, process, design, etc.) for use by city authorities, CSOs, citizens and other relevant organizations. From my experience in leading our current Durban Answers project, and from my role on the National Treasury Cities Support Programme advisory group on the country's biggest metros.\n\n### What is the goal or outcome of your session?\nThe goal of the session is to collate the various experiences of people working in technology, civic tech, open data, policy, and the many other relevant fields of challenges cities face with access and digital inclusion. We want to see future cities where the citizenry is happy, to try to shift the dialogue around smart cities from sensors and bots to social cohesion and inclusivity. Once we have understood and laid out the various experiences, challenges, and opportunities, we will outline an inclusive digital city toolkit, for use by city officials and planners, citizens, and organisations involved in city-building. The outcomes will be a collated brief of digital inclusion city topics, and an outline for an inclusive digital city toolkit.\n\n\n### If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.\nThis session will just need office supplies (a whiteboard, whiteboard markers, sticky notes, paper for notes and larger sheets of paper for group work)\n\n\n### Time needed\n90 mins\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/MozillaFoundation/mozfest-program-2017/issues/comments/326401713","html_url":"https://github.com/MozillaFoundation/mozfest-program-2017/issues/603#issuecomment-326401713","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/MozillaFoundation/mozfest-program-2017/issues/603","id":326401713,"user":{"login":"kenyatta1","id":16721812,"avatar_url":"https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/16721812?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenyatta1","html_url":"https://github.com/kenyatta1","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenyatta1/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenyatta1/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenyatta1/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenyatta1/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenyatta1/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenyatta1/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenyatta1/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenyatta1/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenyatta1/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2017-08-31T19:47:10Z","updated_at":"2017-08-31T19:47:10Z","author_association":"COLLABORATOR","body":"Unfortunately, we didn't feel this session quite fit within the Digital Inclusion space this year, so I'm removing the milestone to allow other spaces to consider your proposal."}}
