SUMMARY:WasteNotNYC
DESCRIPTION:WasteNotNYC is an interactive data experience that invites visitors to rethink the journey of their food waste through play and data storytelling. At a touchscreen kiosk\, participants “build a meal” from a menu of options and are prompted to guess how much of it can be composted. The system then reveals the correct answer\, compares it with how others have guessed\, and calculates the long-term impact if that meal were composted daily for a year. To connect the personal to the collective\, the display then zooms out to a citywide map\, showing composting participation rates across neighborhoods and highlighting local resources for compost drop-off or curbside programs. By combining behavioral quizzes\, personalized feedback\, and civic data visualization\, WasteNotNYC transforms an abstract sustainability issue into something concrete\, measurable\, and participatory. WasteNotNYC exemplifies how public interest technology can make invisible systems visible\, spark conversations about equity in environmental access\, and empower New Yorkers to take small daily actions that add up to systemic change! \nWasteNotNYC is a project by Annie Chen. \nAbout Annie Chen: \nAnnie Chen is a Data Scientist based in New York City. She has spent the past several years supporting public safety research for local government\, designing studies and applying statistical and machine learning models to make sense of complex data. She is currently a Climatebase Fellow\, where she is exploring opportunities to contribute to climate technology and engage in environmental sustainability efforts. Annie brings expertise in data storytelling\, civic tech\, and community-focused research\, and is excited to create an interactive experience that helps people connect everyday choices to collective climate action.

SUMMARY:Talk to the City
DESCRIPTION:  \nTalk to the City (T3C) is an open-source deliberation platform that transforms large-scale public input into actionable insights. This session will demonstrate how thousands of voices—whether citizens in democratic innovation pilots\, healthcare workers shaping bargaining strategies\, or voters in Tokyo’s gubernatorial elections—can be synthesized into clear\, collective agendas in real time. Drawing on case studies with Taiwan’s Ministry of Digital Affairs and the Young Women’s Alliance of Australia\, the project will show how digital deliberation can be applied across advocacy\, policy\, and peacebuilding contexts. \nT3C is a great example of public interest technology because it demonstrates that AI can be harnessed for democratic ends rather than commercial or surveillance purposes. T3C preserves the nuance of individual contributions while scaling civic dialogue to levels previously unattainable\, showing what it looks like when technology is designed with transparency\, accountability\, and community benefit at its core. Participants will leave with concrete strategies for using deliberative technology to strengthen advocacy\, inform decision-making\, and translate the principles of citizens’ assemblies into accessible digital formats that empower communities and decision-makers alike. \nTalk to the City (T3C) is a project by Adam Schumacher\, AI Objectives Institute. \nAbout Adam Schumacher: \nAdam Schumacher brings deep expertise in scaling democratic deliberation with Talk to the City (T3C)\, an open-source platform designed to align AI with the public interest. Adam is Program Director at the AI Objectives Institute (AOI)\, where he leads T3C’s global development and partnerships. With over a decade of civic-tech leadership—including directing governance programs with the U.S. Agency for International Development—he has advanced deployments with governments\, civil society\, and advocacy groups worldwide.

SUMMARY:Mutual Vend
DESCRIPTION:  \nMutual Vend is a decentralized\, peer to peer 3D-printable vending machine network where every purchase earns you a share of the profits. Mutual Vend creates a self-sustaining\, consumer-owned retail network through two simple principles: shared responsibility for stocking machines and shared rewards from every purchase. Consumers stake collateral to stock machines cooperatively\, with other consumers voting to verify the inventory\, creating shared ownership and responsibility. Every purchase automatically earns you rewards that can be cashed out to stablecoins or used for more machine purchases. Mutual Vend can also be used for mutual aid. \nMutual Vend is presented by Ron Turetzky\, Bread Collective.

SUMMARY:Future of Sustainable Buildings: Plumbing Systems & Data for Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Future of Sustainable Buildings: Plumbing Systems & Data for Resilience is a project that combines mechanical engineering and data science to demonstrate how plumbing and building systems impact sustainability\, equity\, and public health in cities like New York. \nThe demo will feature an interactive visualization where visitors can simulate choices\, such as upgrading plumbing systems\, implementing graywater recycling\, or improving efficiency across neighborhoods. These simulations will generate real-time outputs showing the environmental and cost impacts of sustainable building practices. \nFuture of Sustainable Buildings bridges the tangible (pipes\, water\, energy) with the digital (data engineering\, visualization\, simulation)\, which we feel is especially important in this era. Many civic conversations overlook plumbing and mechanical systems\, despite their central role in sustainability\, climate adaptation\, and the long-term resilience of New York City’s infrastructure. \nAs lifelong Queens residents\, we want to connect this work directly to the city we call home. We’ve grown up surrounded by the complexities of NYC’s infrastructure\, from aging buildings to water usage disparities\, and we believe the public should have tools to understand and imagine more sustainable and resilient futures for our city. \nFuture of Sustainable Buildings is a project by Caitlin Reyes and Erik Ramjattan. \nAbout Caitlin Reyes and Erik Ramjattan: \nCaitlin Reyes — Senior Computer Science student at Hunter College\, incoming Data Engineer at CVS Health. Specializes in data pipelines\, visualization\, and civic/public interest applications of technology. \nErik Ramjattan — Alumni from The City College of New York\, Mechanical Engineer specializing in plumbing systems at Cosentini Associates. Brings expertise in sustainable building design and infrastructure efficiency in urban cities. \nNote: Company names are listed only to provide context for our professional backgrounds. This project is an independent effort and is not affiliated with any organizations.
