The Rbanism community aims to empower urbanism researchers, students, educators and practitioners to use open-source software and related open-science practices effectively and with confidence. It raises awareness, stimulates engagement and builds capacity by demonstrating the benefits of reproducibility, automation and scalability. Rbanism was initiated in 2021 by a group of R users in the Department of Urbanism at TU Delft, and it has scaled up to an international community of 70+ members. Our mission is to cultivate scientific computing, data science, computational thinking and software management skills applied to urbanism. To that end, our activities include workshops, many of which are carried out as part of the Carpentries, challenges with prizes, and meetups. In addition to in-person activities, we organise online events open to our international community members. These various forms of engagement follow our commitment to inclusion and accessibility. The Rbanism community is supported by the Netherlands eScience Center, the Open Science Community Delft, as well as the Department of Urbanism and Central Library at TU Delft. Website: rbanism.org
