g0v (pronounced "gov zero") is a decentralized, grass-roots civic tech community based in Taiwan. We advocate information transparency and build tech solutions to promote civic engagement.Built on the spirits of open source and activism, g0v aims to use technology in the interest of the public good. Our missions are to allow citizens easy access to public information and to empower them to make a change. Substituting the "o" with "0″ in gov, we want to use the power of digital technologies to reform current politics so as to envision a new future of democracy.Established in 2012, g0v has since hosted over 50 hackathons and two international summits. Thousands of participants from different backgrounds have contributed to hundreds of projects, making g0v one of the biggest civic tech communities around the world.
