Each year Code2040 Fellows come together to leverage their talents and expertise to solve some of our society’s most pressing challenges. This year encourages fellows to position themselves as leaders in the fight for sustainability. We invite fellows to create solutions to help develop thriving Black and Latinx communities through the three pillars of sustainable development--social, environment, and economic. Sustainable development looks at these three pillars as the fundamental blocks to ensuring that as a society we meet the needs of the present without compromising resources for the future.

This site will be used for the 2 separate hackathons (SF/SV/PDX and NYC). Below is information on each hackathon. Please visit the separate websites for more information and agendas. 

• Technology: 
  How technically impressive was the hack? Was the technical problem the team tackled difficult? Did it use a particularly clever technique or did it use many different components? Did the technology involved make you go "Wow"?
• Design:
  Was there thought into the user experience? How well designed is the interface? For a website, this might be about how beautiful the CSS or graphics are. For a hardware project, it might be more about how good the human-computer interaction is.
• Completion
  Does the hack work? Did the team achieve everything they wanted?
• Learning:
  Did they try to learn something new? What kind of projects have they worked on before? If a team which always does virtual reality projects decides to switch up and try doing a mobile app instead, that exploration should be rewarded.
