Humane Tech NYC: A Hands-on Workshop for Creating Impact

After a year of building the Center for Humane Technology’s NYC community and bringing awareness of key issues of the movement, we’re shifting gears towards creating real-world impact on the issues. Inspired by the Center for Humane Technology’s recent call-to-action for communities to take action at the local level, we are hosting the first of a series of hands-on, action-oriented Humane Tech workshops.


In this month’s workshop, we’re going to ask you to get involved; bring your subject matter expertise and passion to play a role in ideating solutions through the Center for Humane Technology’s model for change. We’ll focus on ideas for creating impact through the lense of internal pressure at major tech companies, external pressure at the public and policy level, and inspirational thought leadership.


All you need to do is fill out a quick survey and show up prepared to engage and participate. We hope that through these workshops, people will find a space to channel their passion and inspiration, connect with like-minded collaborators, feel empowered, and ultimately contribute to our community’s actionable and impactful efforts.
