Description

"Hack the Change" is a social impact Hackathon, geared towards apps that solve problems of:

  • International Development
  • Disaster Management
  • Mass Atrocities Prevention
  • Humanitarian Aid
  • Community Engagement and Democracy Enhancement.

In short, basically anything that makes the world a better and safer place.

Hack the Change seeks to create viable and sustainable technology based solutions to challenges faced by countries with developing technology infrastructure. The event encourages people to look at international and local issues from a tech/engineering perspective, rather than a policy perspective. It thus provides an avenue to bring together developers, engineers, NGOs, and entrepreneurs to solve real world problems and make an immediate impact. We are very excited to see what results come out from this exciting intersection of people. Our event is one of the many growing projects in the field of information and communication technologies for development (ICT4D), continuing to Hack the Change we wish to see in the world.
