2024 XR Joy Hackathon
The 2024 XR Joy Hackathon is a three-day event focused on developing innovative XR solutions that promote cultural integration and ethnic harmony. The event is scheduled to take place from Friday, June 28 to Sunday, June 30, 2024, at Iceaddis, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
The hackathon is set to be a unique opportunity for creative minds to come together and design immersive experiences that foster understanding, empathy, and peaceful coexistence among different cultural and ethnic groups in Ethiopia. This groundbreaking event is inspired by @co(x)ist, in collaboration with Efuye Gela and the Ethiopian Games Association (EGA), a flagship project dedicated to peacebuilding through technology.
Throughout the event, participants will have the chance to collaborate, innovate, and showcase their XR projects aimed at bridging cultural divides and celebrating diversity. The event promises to be an exciting initiative, and attendees will also be entertained by Chewata Awaqi.
