Join us for the CCA x Mobilise Hackathon, a weekend of innovation where technology meets social impact!
In teams, you'll tackle a real-world challenge by developing tech-driven solutions. You and your team will be given 48 hours starting from March 27th 7pm to March 29th 7pm to complete your solution. With mentors, industry resources, and a deep dive into the complexities of homelessness, you’ll gain hands-on experience in problem-solving, collaboration, and solution design🤓. No prior experience needed !
This event will kick off with an introduction online and workshops to ensure everyone starts with a strong foundation before diving into solution-building🧑💻.
We’ve booked a room for the entire day on Saturday, so you’ll have a space to collaborate in person, though remote work is also an option it is highly recommended to come in-person! Mentors will be available to guide teams on Saturday as they prototype and refine their ideas, leading up to Sunday’s final presentation session at Monash, where all teams must present in-person. Judges will award 🤩exciting prizes🤩, and yes—there will be catering on Sunday😋!
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, innovate, and create meaningful impact—sign up now and be part of the solution!
Team sizes are 3-5 but don't worry if you don't have a full team ready, you are free to sign up by yourself and we can organise for you to join one🕺
