[2nd] Grafana - Green Grafana

Join Grafana Labs in driving impact for the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs - https://sdgs.un.org/goals)! This challenge invites you to leverage Grafana’s power to raise awareness and provide insights into these critical global issues, with a particular interest in environmental sustainability. You have the flexibility to approach this challenge in two exciting ways (or a combination of both!): 1. Data Visualization Powerhouse: Ingest open data from one or more sources into Grafana. Transform this data to reveal meaningful trends and create compelling dashboards that effectively communicate the challenges and potential solutions for your chosen SDG(s). Explore various visualization types to craft impactful narratives (panels, canvas, etc). 2. Grafana App Innovator: Go beyond traditional dashboards and develop a Grafana App plugin (panel, dashboard, scenes, the sky is the limit!) that provides unique insights or functionalities related to your chosen SDG(s). Get inspired by the Grafana plugin examples: https://grafana.com/developers/plugin-tools/plugin-examples/. Your app could offer interactive visualizations, custom data displays, or even integrate external tools and APIs. We encourage you to focus on environmental SDGs (e.g., Climate Action, Life Below Water, Life on Land), though all SDGs are valid and welcome. Here are some starting points for open data (feel free to explore others!), and mix them: * UN SDG Data (https://unstats.un.org/sdgs/indicators/database/) * World Bank Open Data (https://data.worldbank.org/) * Our World in Data (https://ourworldindata.org/) * Open Sustainable Technology (https://opensustain.tech/) * etc. During our 30-minute introductory talk, we’ll teach you the basics of ingesting data into Grafana, understanding metrics and logs, and even guiding you through the initial steps of creating your own Grafana plugin app. We can’t wait to see your innovative solutions!
