Bamenda, January 10th, 2024 – Climate Action Africa, in partnership with Mountain Hub, is excited to announce the Green Hackathon, scheduled to take place in Bamenda from January 28th to 30th, 2024. This 48-hour hackathon is themed “Developing Solutions for Sustainable Agriculture and Food Security” and invites young innovators to participate in this groundbreaking event.
The Green Hackathon aims to harness the power of technology to address critical climate challenges such as food waste and water conservation, crucial for sustainable agriculture and food security. Participants will have the opportunity to work in teams, developing either an app, a hardware solution, or other tech-driven prototypes that offer practical solutions to these pressing issues.
Climate Action Africa is committed to providing technical support throughout the event, ensuring that the innovative solutions developed are not only viable but also sustainable. The organization’s objective is to position the region as a major food hub for West and Central Africa, leveraging this partnership with Mountain Hub to foster technological advancements in the agriculture sector of Bamenda, Cameroon.
The hackathon represents more than just a competition; it is a platform for learning, networking, and contributing to a global movement for sustainable agricultural and food systems. Participants will have the chance to demonstrate their inventions to a panel of judges and compete for prizes and recognition at the event’s closing ceremony. Win or lose, all participants will gain valuable experience, build industry contacts, and contribute to the advancement of sustainability.
