Join us as we host our 2nd Annual GDI Virtual Hackathon. This unique series offers learning events like panel discussions, an introduction to “hacking,” and collaboration with GDI community members from across the globe. Our theme for 2022 is "Hacking for Health!" We will be focusing our talks and projects on general health & wellness topics. If you are interested in sponsoring or partnering with us on this event, click here to learn more about the opportunities and/or email sponsorship@girldevelopit.com What is a Hackathon? A hackathon is an event in which programmers, graphic designers, content strategists, interface designers, and project managers collaborate intensively on projects. Or as we like to call it: an event where people work together to find new (sometimes inelegant) solutions to a problem. Who should attend? If you’ve ever taken a GDI class, jumped into an online tech tutorial, or joined other coding events, this is a great opportunity to take the skills you’ve learned and apply them to a collaborative project working with like-minded individuals. But even if you haven’t attended any tech bootcamps or coding events, you’re absolutely welcome to join! Beginners and the tech-curious are especially encouraged to attend, as are experienced technologists who are interested in sharing their knowledge and skills while working on projects that they are passionate about. What will this event look like? This event will kick off with a series of pre-Hackathon events including: In addition to hacking collaboratively with your team, participants are welcome to join: We have two registration options: What do you need to participate? No much! Just an interest to learn, create and engage with our community. Our basic requirement is access to a computer with the option to join a video conference. We will be hosting an information session a week before the event to answer questions and make sure you are comfortable with the event. We will also be hosting: We are looking for Sponsors to help support the event and provide prizes to our teams. We are also looking for mentors to support our teams. Register for our mentor information session if you are interested.
