Together with GitHub Tech for Social Good, Kurante has formed a new open source community of monitoring & evaluation practitioners in more than 10 countries in four continents! This community is lowering the barriers for an important social sector vertical to understand if, how and when to use open source solutions, and we’re doing it in an inclusive way.

We are very happy with GitHub’s Skills-Based Volunteering program! The outcome of the project provides a great entry point for DHIS2 web application developers and serves as a first stop in our redesigned DHIS2 Developer Portal welcome page.

Leading the Open Source in the Social Sector report research was a unique opportunity to identify critical insights at an incredibly important intersection. The research has already strengthened social sector open source capacity and has led to more research opportunities for Olive Branch International to engage with GitHub Tech for Social Good and use the knowledge gained from the engagement to navigate other open-source opportunities for the social sector.
Gina Assaf // Olive Branch International

A critical Diversity, Inclusion, Access and Race Equity lens is needed to truly yield equitable social good. The GitHub Tech for the Social Good team has taken on this lens to ensure that any program outcome, however well intentioned, does not disadvantage the very people it seeks to engage, particularly BIPOC, LGBTQI+, and under-resourced communities.
Eboné M. Bishop // DEAI and Race Equity Advisor, CEO & Founder, Evolv
