is inviting you to use their dataset to develop and visualise innovative answers to two key questions facing charitable and philanthropic grantmakers:
•
Thematic trends: Who has funded what over the years?
•
User-led organisations: Who funds them, in what thematic area, how much funding do they receive and what type of organisation are they (
e.g. CIC, charity, co-operative, community group)?
By opening up 360Giving's grantmaking data to some of the world’s most inquisitive and creative minds, they hope that they will in turn help funders to maximise their impact on the many great charitable causes they support.
Whether it’s an
interactive web app, a
graphic image, a
videoor
another form of visualisation, they are looking for original responses to these two critical questions.
Entries must use the
360Givingdataset, but you are encouraged to use other datasets alongside it. You can find a list of suggested datasets

Will Perrin,
