The data-for-good movement is expanding. DataKind, the fast-growing organization that brings together data scientists and nonprofits, has formed five new chapters.
Two of the new affiliates are in the United States—in San Francisco and Washington—while the other three are overseas, in Bangalore, India, and in Dublin and Singapore. They join DataKindUK, the group’s first chapter, which was started last year.
In April, DataKind put out a call for chapter proposals and received almost 100 applications from 60 cities worldwide.
