31 March, 2012
San Francisco CA , Estados Unidos
This free one-day coding challenge will focus on creating apps to help solve critical health challenges for teens and young adults-- specifically "unmentionable" issues like sexually transmitted diseases, depression, substance abuse and dating violence.
The Hack-A-Thon is open to all interested participants-- including designers, developers, programmers, social entrepreneurs, community advocates-- regardless of technology skill level. Teams will take ideas through rapid development to create working prototypes for future use.
ISIS is hosting our first ever hack-a-thon, together with our partners TechSoup.. A hack-a-thon is a live event bringing together developers, designers, innovators and entrepreneurs to build exciting new apps and tools, in this case to improve young people’s health and wellness. This short and focused event – 1 day only – will result in the rapid development of interesting concepts and working prototypes that will be developed further by the participating teams back at their desks and at future hack-a-thon events, with ISIS and TechSoup as partners for future product development and distribution.
Theme: The Unmentionables
Challenge: Design an app to solve the challenge of providing honest, real-time, private data from youth and young adults about “unmentionable” activities, like sexual behavior, substance use, sadness, and relationship drama to researchers and program experts who work with youth.
