Heza Hackathon 2026
“Give to Gain: Innovate for Gender Equality”
Join the Heza Hackathon 2026, a 10-hour hackathon for young women aged 16–24 who want to build real solutions.
As part of Women’s Month, this event creates a space for young women to come together, share ideas, and learn by doing. You’ll work in teams to pick a challenge from your community, come up with a solution, and build a simple prototype like an app, platform, or any tech idea.
Mentors will be there to support you throughout the day, and you don’t need to be an expert to join. Come ready to learn, build, and try something new.
Location
