Hack the Patriarchy is a hackathon that has been created to welcome women & nonbinary folks of diverse backgrounds to build badass social impact projects over the course of a weekend (plus some pre-hackathon events if you’re interested!)

HTP is committed to centering and lifting up women and marginalized voices in technology, so our first hackathon is for women and nonbinary folks only.

Our teams will engage in brainstorming, planning and constructing solutions to address a diverse array of issues facing marginalized communities in our backyard and around the globe.

We’re looking for creative & innovative folks with skills that can contribute to a project: mobile, web, hardware, design, domain expertise,entrepreneurialism, activism, product development, marketing, project management or anything else potentially helpful.
