NuLawLab
The NuLawLab is the interdisciplinary innovation laboratory at Northeastern University School of Law. The Lab is a leader in the global legal design movement and incubates projects that advance the democratization of law.
Code for Boston
Code for Boston addresses local social and civic challenges through creative uses of technology. Despite the name, they are not solely focused on coding!
They foster relationships between government, nonprofit, academic, for-profit companies, residents, civic technologists, analysts, designers, and many more. Code for Boston's volunteer contributors have led the technical implementation and development of this website and platform as an open source project (see our repository on GitHub).
