Hack Night: Fighting the Border Crisis with Technology
The hackathon "Hack Night: Fighting the border crisis with technology" took place on August 22, 2018 in Monterrey. This innovation consisted of a first phase of training and a second phase of participation. During the first stage, citizens received training from members of Codeando México, Mapper and Vordem Software, who shared their experiences regarding the impact of technology in strengthening civil society organizations working with migrants. In addition, lessons were given on collaborative data mapping. During the second phase, an Open Hacking Space was created in which citizens could put into practice the knowledge acquired for the design of projects.
