Humane Tech Hackathon: Vibe Code for Humanity
Join us for a day of innovation, collaboration, and crafting technology that prioritizes human well-being.
Are you passionate about building a more ethical, equitable, and empowering digital world? Do you believe technology should serve humanity, not the other way around? Then this hackathon is for you!
What is Humane Tech?
Humane Tech is a movement focused on designing and building technology that truly supports human life:
Tech that serves our wellbeing and helps us thrive—not just captures attention.
Connection that goes deeper than metrics—to self, others, and nature.
Products that shape how we treat each other—and ourselves—with care.
Recognition that users are people, not just data points.
Technology that helps culture heal, not just scale.
Tech built by people who care—and designed to let them keep caring.
This hackathon is a chance to:
Collaborate with like-hearted individuals: Team up with designers, developers, researchers, and activists who share your values.
Learn new skills: Participate in workshops and talks on humane tech principles, ethical design, and responsible development.
Build real-world solutions: Work on projects that address pressing issues and contribute to a more humane digital landscape.
Showcase your work: Present your project to a panel of judges and the broader community.
Win prizes and recognition: Be rewarded for your creativity and commitment to humane tech.
Have fun! This will be a great opportunity to learn and network with people passionate about the same things.
