The 2023 ODK Summit took place in London between Friday June 9th and Sunday June 11th. It aimed to bring together experienced users of ODK to share practical experience, inspiration, and challenges, with the goal of shaping the future of the project, particularly by broadening community participation. It was a high-energy, solutions-oriented event that will inform the next 6 to 12 months of improvements to ODK!
