Tech for Good: Skill Based Volunteering

Join us for an inspiring evening dedicated to the power of technology and skill-based volunteering in making a positive impact on society.
Two incredible organizations, Hacker School and Sea Watch, will showcase how their innovative approaches are transforming lives and communities.

Hacker School, a leading tech education platform, that believes in the potential of technology to drive social change. They are committed to making digital education inclusive so that every young person can program once before choosing a career. Their motivation is to overcome inequalities to make exciting and inspiring education accessible to everyone, regardless of gender and background.

Sea Watch, an esteemed nonprofit organization, focuses on saving lives at sea and advocating for the rights of refugees and migrants. They recognize the invaluable role that technology plays in their humanitarian efforts, from enhancing search and rescue operations to facilitating communication and support for those in need. Sea Watch representatives will discuss the challenges they face and how volunteers with tech expertise can contribute to their mission.
