What is Facing the Ocean? https://www.code4japan.org/activity/global Facing the Ocean (FtO) is a community event that brings together East Asian civic takers who face the same ocean. g0v (Taiwan), Code for Korea/Parti (Korea), Code for Japan (Japan), and volunteers from other countries in the proximity, started to provide a forum where they can report on recent civic tech activities and collaborate on initiatives on the same theme. The event has been held in Okinawa and Tainan in 2019, in Jeju in 2023 after the Corona Disaster, and will be held in Yokohama this year!
