Code Green: Hackathon! (Grade 9)

Code Green: Hackathon Grade 9 is a programming challenge where students will collaborate in teams to develop innovative digital solutions to real-world environmental and sustainability issues. Participants will have a limited time to design and implement a functional program or application aimed at addressing one or more of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The challenge will involve coding, problem-solving, and teamwork as students use their technical skills to create apps, websites, or programs that promote environmental sustainability, disaster risk reduction, or eco-friendly practices. Students will be assessed on the originality, practicality, and impact of their solution, as well as the quality of their code and presentation. This event encourages students to explore the intersection of technology and sustainability, empowering them to use their programming skills to create a positive impact on the world.
