What if young people could pitch solutions to the world’s biggest challenges in under two minutes? Join us for a hands-on Hackathon led by Docathon, where student teams will compete to create short film trailers that imagine a better future for our planet. Working together in real time, participants will brainstorm, script, and produce original trailers that combine creativity, storytelling, and a call to action. This is not a passive session. It is a live, high-energy challenge that puts young people in the director’s chair and invites everyone in the room to cheer them on. Come ready to collaborate, create, and see what this generation can do when given the tools, the time, and the stage.

Pre-registration required. You do not have to attend the morning session to participate in the afternoon Hackathon.
