About
Welcome to the RESET Project Hackathon!
The “Gender Responsive Excellence” Hackathon is realized in the framework of the H2020 RESET Project. We believe that diversity and inclusion are not just buzzwords but essential components of driving meaningful change and progress in our world.
Join us for our Open Innovation Hackathon, where we invite you to bring your ideas to life in a collaborative environment. This isn’t your typical Hackathon – it is a co-creation one-day event where participants work together exploring new opportunities and tackling problems that you address first. This hackathon is open to all genders and/or other minority groups.
Pick an issue of gender inequality that you care to solve the most! Remember that the key is to create a solution that is innovative, impactful, and feasible. *
* e.g. Develop gender-responsive solutions to address challenges, such as Gender gap in technology, Inclusiveness/Intersectionality in research, Female leadership in research, Promotion of Gender Equality in the STEM field, etc.
