3 Time Zone Hackerthon: social innovation lab Organize an international event happening in Feb/March 2015.
What is it? Hackerthon is a term employed by program designers referring to a race between several groups of students which consists in breaking codes or creating computer programs. A Hackerthon in the field of social innovation would be based on the same concept. But instead of having codes to break, the students would have to offer solution(s) to a challenge faced by a social start-up. For the company/organisation pitching the challenge it faces, this sort of event is very interesting since it ends up with a set of several solutions to solve the same problem. In addition to that, according to the background and formation of each group of students, the challenge is considered and eventually solved through totally different approaches. 3 time zones: Tamil Nadu, Midi-Pyrenees, New York To make it a more original and attractive event, the UnLtd Tamil Nadu hackerthon will consist in an international collaboration between groups of students from the 3 locations above. In terms of problem solving, the purpose of making it an international event is to get a better output from the collaboration of three teams which are culturally different. The event would first be starting in Tamil Nadu with the students working on the challenge for a few hours. At the end of their deadline, they will have 30 minutes to hand over their work to their collaborative team in Midi- Pyrenees, which will themselves have a few hours to keep adding value to the project before handing it over to a team based in New York.
