Project Description

Particulate matter in the air is everyone’s business! Participate in solving urban issues!

Communautique, as a technology democratization organization, wants to create a space for conversation about open data, sensors and their uses. The Canari Project aims to develop hands-on training content for creating and appropriating local data to solve urban issues, such as air quality.
