The inaugural ATHackathon aims to create innovative tools to track & analyze data related to trafficking. Human Trafficking is a multi-billion dollar criminal industry that enslaves over 20 million people around the world. Reliable data remains a major challenge at the heart of anti-human trafficking efforts. Lack of data = lack of issue legitimacy, data informed solutions, and public awareness. Come and be part of a change!
