Details

The Hackathon winners included 12 teams of architects and specialized universities. In total, about half a thousand specialists from Ukraine and abroad participated in the Hackathon, and they developed 63 projects free of charge, including schools, rehabilitation centers, sports facilities, ASCs, etc. Each solution was developed for the community and its needs, and communities can already use each project.

According to the organizers, the cost of the conceptual designs created by volunteers is 3 million hryvnias. The winners received from one to two thousand dollars from the prize fund, which was formed by the "Vidvazhnykh" Society and the "Molodist" Investment Group.

About the "100 Ideas for Cities" Hackathon

One of the largest projects for the reconstruction of Ukrainian cities after the war - the "100 Ideas for Cities" Hackathon, organized by the Innovations and Reconstruction for Society (IRS) project and the Mayors' Club NGO.

The Hackathon has already yielded significant results, gathering 63 developed architectural ideas for participating communities from all over Ukraine. Currently, 250 applications have been received from communities in 22 regions, which is about a hundred communities. Within the project, 139 formed architectural teams are working, 20% of which are from abroad: Belgium, Chile, Austria, the United Arab Emirates, the USA, Italy, the Netherlands, and Slovakia.

We, the participants and organizers of the project, face a responsible task - to implement several projects that are important not only for a single community but for all of Ukraine. We also plan to transfer unified solutions to the Office of the President and the Prime Minister, which can become the basis for the development of similar projects in many communities of Ukraine, including schools, kindergartens, ASCs, rehabilitation centers, memorials, and sports infrastructure.
