FutureSolve
Hackathon
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The FutureSolve Hackathon, held at the International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad (IIIT-H), was an exceptional event dedicated to harnessing technology for sustainability and solving climate change issues.
This event, a brainchild of the collaborative efforts between IIIT-H and the Pravaha Foundation, was designed to be more than just a competition; it was a movement toward empowering the next generation of innovators.
FutureSolve brought together bright minds from Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas (JNVs) to explore the realms of Robotics, IoT, and App Development, fostering a culture of innovation and problem-solving among the youth. It was carefully crafted to address two of the most pressing challenges of our time: Sustainability and Climate Change.
