*The United States Diplomacy Center is hosting our first hackathon, ImpactHack <http://impacthack.devpost.com/>, in Washington DC this September. 100+ developing technologists will work with subject matter experts to use data visualization to explore stories of global collaboration. Participants will expand their skills, problem-solving and creativity while creating digital interactives that will serve as prototypes for the Diplomacy Center museum. Topics range from refugees to climate change. This is a unique opportunity for participants to connect with the State Department and utilize experts from our partner, World Resource Institute, and sponsors, AWS and Google.*
Please send around to coders and designers who may be interested, or stop by to check out the event! We also have a limited number of $50 travel sponsorships for those interested.
