New York City’s Civic Innovation Fellowship and Coding It Forward’s Civic Digital Fellowship will discuss how each program is empowering a new generation of young people to pursue social impact in their communities with and through technology. Cohort by cohort, a universe of students equipped with technology and good government know-how are emerging in both locales, ready to address big challenges in our cities, country, and world. On this panel, alumni from both programs will give us an insider perspective on their fellowship experience, while program directors and staff will discuss what CIF and CDF have in store for the future.
