What we do
Solving IT Challenges for Civil Society
Belarusian civil society has a great deal of initiatives working in domains like democracy, freedom of speech, culture, education, etc. We believe all of them need a simple and tractable way to solve IT challenges they face without necessarily building IT teams of their own. Our members offer professional pro-bono help in setting up websites, chatbots, analytics, SMM tools and other IT tools to help such initiatives.

Empowering Through Education
We promote popular education and vocational training by sharing by sharing practical knowledge about the technology that shapes our world. Our members host hands-on sessions designed to make science and research accessible to everyone.
Our workshops cover a wide range of topics, including fundamentals like "How the Internet Works" and newer developments like "Hands-on with LLMs." These are just examples of how we make technical skills and information more accessible for the community to navigate today's IT landscape.

Connecting Like-Minded Tech Minds
We've built a living network of specialists, united by curiosity and a willingness to use their skills for a good cause. From peer-led workshops and mentoring to casual brainstorming, informal knowledge sharing, and our regular hackathons, we focus on exchanging insights and lifting each other up. Even though we are a distributed organization, we meet regularly to keep the collaborative spirit alive.
