Event Description

This hackathon is about supporting cultural diversity and heritage around the world. Take your hacks on a ride across the globe to learn about new cultures and build innovative solutions for them. The hacks can vary from supporting travelers in their journey to creating an app that shares more about the ethnicity and diversity of the place. The possibilities are endless. We can't wait to see what you build this weekend.

This weekend we also encourage you to use the team-building channel in discord, form diverse teams, and know more about each other.

While we'd love to have you build something on the theme, our themes are only here for inspiration. As always, build whatever you'd like!
Happy hacking!
