THINK OUTSIDE THE CUBICLE 48 HOURS TO HACK THE WORKPLACE OF THE FUTURE In a day or in a lifetime, we spend much of our time working. Whether you work as a freelancer, as part of a small startup, or as part of a large company, we want to give you the opportunity to imagine what your dream workplace could be. How can technology change our work environments? How can a smarter office improve our work lives? Inter IKEA Systems B.V. invites you to join a 48-hour hackathon to think outside the cubicle! The objective is to make our work lives better, simpler, happier (and "app"ier)! No technological constraints – think mobile applications, connected objects, interior design... Anything is possible. The only limit is your imagination. http://think-outside-the-cubicle.bemyapp.com/

More info here: http://www.internsday.org/ Internships have become a prerequisite to getting a job. All over the world, millions of young people are doing internships with the hope of accessing full-time employment. This is essential as interns are the new generation of workers that will have to face the ever more complex political, social, economic and environmental challenges. Unfortunately, the majority of internships do not fulfil their role. They are, for the large part, unpaid and badly designed, with little learning content and supervision. This causes social inequality in accessing them and forces young people into a trap of never getting enough work experience to actually start working. We cannot accept a situation where young people, even after studies, have to work for free or are stuck for years in an uncertain transition to the labour market. This stops them from building their life and contributing to society. This is why we call on you to stand up for youth employment and interns rights on the first International Interns Day. The idea behind the day is to join forces internationally to act around two main objectives: 1) empowering the interns’ community and 2) achieving concrete political change. The programme is open source such that everyone can get ownership of it and bring their own actions to the day taking place simultaneously across the world both online & offline. You can find the programme per city below, on www.internsday.org and on twitter https://twitter.com/internsday

For this hackathon we bring together the brightest minds in the built environment industry with hackers, coders, UI/UX-designers, robotica experts and more. In one weekend, we build new tools for the building industry, using open data and open standards. How do you evaluate building designs? Can we optimise the exchange of building information? Can a building talk to you, or adapt to your wishes and needs? Can a building be open source? Let’s combine digital Architecture, Construction and Engineering with Smart Cities, the Internet of Things, Robotics, Big Data and Augmented Reality to make dreams come true. Come hack with us and be part of the future! More info on http://aechack.nl/
