Description: Action for Open. Like hackathons, but more inclusive. Like events, but more impactful. Designed for those without enough time.
Doathons bring together diverse participants to advance open — openly and quickly. The event centers around participants (no speakers needed!), and projects (e.g. on Github) where collaboration, discovery and preservation are made easy. Once you’ve got a room booked, you’re free to focus on what matters — attracting awesome participants and helping them work together.
Our first doathon was born out of a need for an inclusive, easy event that focused on getting things done. Tired of focusing on getting speakers for delivering monologues, and events that leave no trace, we decided to focus on working openly on Github.
