ActivateHub is a filterable, aggregated event calendar for civic engagement and activism. Discover the events, organizations and people impacting your community!  Any organization or grassroots organizer can add themselves to our wiki-like, city-specific listing, sync a calendar (iCal, Google calendar, Meetup or FB page) - then all their events continuously appear on our calendar, tagged with appropriate topics.

Developer “Task” Link - we selected specific issues in our GitHub issue tracker for this event, labeled with ‘Coder Day’. More issues are available if you de-select the ‘Coder Day’ label filter.
