OpenOakland is an all-volunteer group of technologists, designers, data geeks, advocates, policy makers, researchers, residents, thinkers, and doers who bridge technology and community for a thriving and equitable Oakland.

There are a thousand and one barriers to getting good progressive policy made. Missing information shouldn't be one of them.

That's why OpenOakland, your local civic tech hub, is putting on CityCamp 2026: a day where policymakers, civic leaders, nonprofit advocates, and technologists actually talk to each other instead of working in silos. Real cross-disciplinary knowledge-sharing, real solutions to the challenges our community is actually facing.

We're here to use tech to solve problems, not invent seventeen new ones with a slick UI. Come see what that looks like in practice.

PLEASE Join us. Link in Bio.

I know I never plan my calendar more than a week or two out unless there’s something really cool happening :P

And something really cool is happening, so consider marking your calendar! On Tuesday, Sept 29th, the Open Oakland Team will be presenting TWO incredible panels as part of Oakland Tech Week. Come meet nonprofit leaders, policy professionals, techies, and community advocates as we talk civic issues, public interest tech, and using tech to actually *support* civic infrastructure.

Hope to see you there-Link in Bio!

Ever thought about how our cities actually get the tech they use to power government services? Well honestly, most of it is private and proprietary. We're working on building open-source tech to better serve governments, and more importantly, residents, in ways that are transparent, democratic, and just. Come Join us!
