Darienne Hunziker

Community & Events Manager
“Creating safe and creative spaces where people can grow and make mistakes”
Darienne is a spoken word poet gone development economist gone community creator. Among many other things she’s founded Poetry Slam in Mexico, has worked with homeless youth and founded in 2016, a Women’s Organisation called Vulva Alpha. She cares deeply about inequality, access to resources and empowerment – and is excited about Opendata’s role in this endeavour.

Gaston Wey

Project Manager
“Free knowledge for all!”
Gaston has a design background, which is why art collections, libraries, archives and museums (GLAM) are particularly close to his heart. He leads and supports various projects from this and also other fields, which as a main motivation support the transfer of knowledge and drive the linking of resources. In his spare time, he likes to design posters or work with the screen printing machine.
