International Women's Hackathon 2014
This April, at college campuses around the globe as well as at the USA Science & Engineering Festival in Washington DC, there will be the International Women's Hackathon 2014. The intention is to empower young women leaders in computer science. The goal of the Hackathon is to find computing solutions to help human trafficking victims. On the Microsoft website there is a training kit as well as other information. There are opportunities for girls in high schools to get involved. Be sure to register your your event by March 25 if you are hosting one!
