In this page you can find a list of datasets that can be used to start your own impactful data science project. In particular you could be…

• a data science tutor who wants to spark inspiring discussion by exploring data related to a problem to be tackle;
• an aspiring data science who wants to build a portfolio in a particular cause area;
• an expert who wants to found valuable insights or start a new impactful data-driven projects;
• a non profit looking for great sources of data to be integrated to have a more comprehensive data evaluation.

‍‍We are working to expand this list also with data from the most impactful organizations.  If you have any direct contact feel free to contact us ?my email or create a new one?

‍

We are also looking for volunteers to create more case studies to show case (both for data science projects and for demo lessons for tech tutors).
