Acodemic X G.I.R.L.S. Global SDG Hackathon

Acodemic x G.I.R.L.S. Global SDG Hackathon


Welcome to the Acodemic x G.I.R.L.S. Global SDG Hackathon.

This competition is all about creating solutions that matter and putting your skills toward real-world impact.

Your challenge is to build a project, a website, an app, a tool, or anything digital, that addresses one of the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals. There are no restrictions on format or industry. Build an education platform, a climate tracker, a health tool, a community resource, or something nobody has built before.

This hackathon is beginner-friendly and open globally to anyone interested in tech, design, and using creativity to solve real problems.

What Makes This Hackathon Different?
Most hackathons stop at "what can you build?"
This one asks "what can you build that matters?"
We are looking for projects that make people say:
"This could actually change something."

Freedom to Create
Participants may use:

• AI tools and assistants
• Online datasets and assets
• Open-source libraries
• Any tech stack, framework, or no-code platform
• Tutorials and learning resources

The judging is based primarily on SDG impact, creativity, and execution.
Technical complexity is optional.
A simple, well-thought-out idea can outperform a highly technical one.
