Join us online or in-person on January 28th for a convening of our tech-for-good community. It’s a chance to get inspired, imagine a better future, and contribute your talents to projects that need your help. We believe that this will be the world's first public multi-location hybrid tech-for-good hackathon. The event will last 22 hours, beginning online and in Tokyo, Japan, moving to Lagos, Nigeria, then concluding in Seattle, USA.
This event is a collaboration between Code for Japan, Code for Africa, Code for America, Code for All, and DemocracyLab.
