Joining forces with Ecoteca, a dedicated NGO focused on waste management, circular economy, and climate impact, we have embarked on a project which aims to digitize environmental indicators in Romania by creating an accessible online platform. This platform will provide easily accessible, public interest environmental data, benefiting researchers, the public, media, and local authorities.
The primary goal is to offer a user-friendly online platform, initially focusing on environmental data at the county level. This innovative tool seeks to make data understandable to the general public, breaking down complex information for non-specialists. The approach is centralized, presenting data in an easily digestible format while fostering an open, crowdsourced data collection process to address community concerns.
Within the mindit.io team, a group of dedicated individuals including 6 interns, 1 cloud infrastructure engineer, 2 mentors, and 1 project coordinator worked tirelessly on this project. From business analysis to technical specifications and application development, the team collaborated to create this innovative platform.
Complementing other social engagement initiatives, “Do Good” aims to generate impact across various causes including climate change, well-being, inclusion, culture, and aiding those in need. Projects under the “Do Good” concept are supported by an annual budget and managed by a dedicated team, working tirelessly to support these noble causes.
“We happily joined such an ambitious and useful initiative as the one proposed by Ecoteca, and we thank once again the colleagues who got involved for this purpose. Year by year we expand and develop the areas of the Do Good concept, through which, with smaller or larger actions, we try to bring a change for the better in education, the environment and society in general” – Ioana Mangalea, Team Manager @mindit.io
The collaboration between mindit.io and Ecoteca to digitize environmental indicators in Romania represents a significant step forward. This innovative platform aims to make environmental data easily accessible and understandable, supporting various stakeholders in making informed decisions regarding environmental concerns.
