What is it?

The Peace First Hackathon is a two-day virtual sprint for changemakers to accelerate their social impact projects. The Hackathon is ideal for young changemakers eager to address an injustice in their community and seeking concrete support as they advance their project from idea stage to launch.

  • Measure and understand what success looks like for your project and set SMART Goals. 
  • Understand your community and identify those who can champion your project.
  • Know the roadmap on how to implement your project with a developed work plan to guide their activities post-Hackathon.
  • Engage with coaches and connect with peer groups with similar interests.
