FOR ARCHIVAL PURPOSES ONLY

The information in this wiki hasn't been maintained for a good while. Some of the projects described have since been deprecated.

In particular, the "Ushahidi Platform v3.x" section contains information that is often misleading. Many details about this version of Platform have changed since.

This website is an extraction of the original Ushahidi wiki into a static form. Because of that, functions like logging in, commenting or searching will not work.

The event link and registration

Bringing together all the latest technology from around the world supporting free and fair elections... and making it better.

The event has 3 main strands:

  • Improvements and upgrades to OneWorld's amazing real-time election monitoring system, which they ran successfully in the recent Senegal Presidential elections. If you've not seen this system before, you should definitely check out the website here and watch this video
  • A number of projects based on the Ushahidi crowdsourced mapping tools  (see below for more details)
  • Investigating how technologies such as mobile & cellular communication, crowd-sourced mapping, remote data plotting and covert data transfer can contribute to monitoring of the electoral process in countries where domestic and international observation is restricted. We'll be looking particularly at how to address the key issue of corroboration/verification, and running at least a couple of country specific workshops looking at practicalities - Zimbabwe and Iran look likely topics for those at present.We're also currently in discussions with several other interested organisations about running other projects on the day. More details to follow soon.

Any ideas, questions, requests, email me at dan@thesmallaxe.com
