Meet Matomo, the ethical alternative to Google Analytics
Would you like not to use Google Analytics on your website, but don't know of ethical alternatives to analyze user data? Matomo is the alternative.
To guarantee the proper democratic functioning of our projects, we can count on communication tools that are more respectful of user data. In this workshop we make an express introduction to Matomo: the ethical alternative to Google Analytics with which you protect 100% of the privacy of the users, without giving it to third parties.
I, Robot? Delving Into the World of Robotics and Programming
Would you like to get closer to the world of video games, program a robot or turn fruit into a musical instrument (yes, the latter too)? Learn how to use tools like Scratch, MakeyMakey, mBot or Arduino, together or separately.
What is certain is that at the end of the workshop you will have discovered programming and robotics differently. Every Thursday, have a tasting and delve into the world of robotics and programming.

Artificial Intelligence, Public Policies and Discrimination
The automation of public and human services based on theoretically neutral and objective criteria can streamline complex procedures that might take months. Currently, algorithms are being applied to determine who attains needed resources. What are the effects of applying automated systems rather than humans in decision-making? What biases are we facing? Is it possible to imagine public governance of artificial intelligence systems?
City of Disinformation
In the City of Disinformation you never know what is true and what is false. Explore the city, go through every corner and walk through a maze of endless news to learn how to identify and combat fake news.
Nowadays, anyone can publish a piece of news and have it received on thousands of devices in a matter of seconds, without validating its veracity. How much news do you receive on your phone a day? Which are true, and which are built on a big lie?
