Working with proj-inclusive

proj-inclusive is a volunteer group of IT engineers and others whose activities center on Social Hack Day, a regular hackathon organized by Code for Japan. Its Slack channel had 178 members as of October 2023. The group is led by Shiratori, Chair of the Institute of Poverty Prevention.

The group works with the Institute to develop tools such as the Yadokari support estimator, an app that helps people connect with the assistance they need.

Part of its work is featured on NHK’s morning news program Ohayo Nippon on Friday, 27 October 2023.
