Event Description

The SDG Hackathon, a premier tech initiative by Jazz, in collaboration with Code for Pakistan and OPEN Islamabad, will bring together a mix of technologists, designers, urban planners, social scientists, NGOs and CSOs, and government, to approach and solve social and civic problems in a new way, using technology, data and digital tools.

If you,
- have a great idea that can create positive impact in your community and address pressing social challenges,
- have skills in web or mobile development, design, mapping, data analysis, research, subject matter expertise in SDGs or the civic space,
then REGISTER NOW TO ATTEND, for free, by filling in this form http://bit.ly/isbhacks2019 (Due to logistical constraints, we have limited slots available. We will contact shortlisted applicants via email, so make sure you register by filling in the form.) Registration deadline is 28 November.

During the hackathon, you will work in teams to create solutions, learn design thinking, open-source hacking for social good, receive mentoring and input from domain experts in government and local organizations, and have opportunities to network.

Over the course of two-and-a-half days, you will develop prototypes that tackle and address social and civic challenges in your communities related to the following five SDGs:
#3 Good Health and Well-Being
#4 Quality Education
#5 Gender Equality
#9 Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
#11 Sustainable Cities and Communities

Attendance is free. All you need to do is bring your creativity, skills, and enthusiasm! We at, Code for Pakistan, will do the rest.
