The Raspberry Pi Foundation is a UK-based charity that works to put the power of computing and digital making into the hands of people all over the world. Hundreds of thousands of young people regularly use our free, detailed, and engaging educational resources to learn computing and digital making skills. To reach even more young people, especially in communities that may not yet have access to high-quality computing education, we need to translate these resources into a wide variety of languages. To celebrate International Translation Day on 30 September, we are organising a translation hackathon at our headquarters in Cambridge, where we hope to bring together the wonderful people of Cambridge to help us translate as many of our educational resources as possible. Please join us if you speak fluent English and another language, and have some basic knowledge of Python, HTML, and/or Scratch. You don’t need any translation experience — our translation team will provide you with help and support. Together, we can break down the language barriers in computing education.

It is a competition that gathers programmers with different skill sets to work collaboratively, on a software project, which creatively solves various problems on a given topic. Who’s behind the Global Travel Hackathon? The idea was born at Kiwi.com, however, each of the hackathons has a different organiser. Please, consult the web page to see who’s the main organiser of the hackathon you are interested in. What should I build?The general theme of the Global Travel Hackathon is sustainability, accessibility and community in the world of travel.  In order to participate, do I need to stay for the whole 24 hours?We don't force anyone but we higly recommend that to enjoy the time to the top. Is there a hashtag? Yes, it’s #HackTravel. Can I get support to travel to a hackathon? We do not provide travel support to attend a hackathon of your choice. You are free to organize a hackathon in your city by yourself – if you would like to, let us know here. How big can my team be?From two to four people. Can I get a head start on my hack?To ensure a level playing field for all participants, all code and assets must be created during the hackathon. Failure to comply with this rule may result in the offending team's disqualification. Nevertheless, feel free to make plans, create wireframes, and brainstorm ahead of the event. Can I use external APIs, services, and SDKs?You are encouraged to use any 3rd party services, APIs, open-source projects, libraries, and frameworks as long as they are publicly available on the web. We offer our public API's that you can find on our B2B platform Tequila, so you can use our resources to take the travel experience to a new level. Who owns the intellectual property generated during the hackathon?What you create is yours. No one else, including Kiwi.com, has the rights to use it outside of the competition. What if I don't know how to code?You are still welcome! As long as you come willing to learn and ready to contribute ideas, you can contribute to a team. But your team must have at least one developer because you will be evaluated on the technical solution of a demo you deliver in those 24 hours. What are the demos like?You'll have 180 seconds to pitch your idea and demo to a panel of judges. You'll be provided with AV support, a microphone, and a projector. The specific criteria of the evaluation process will be presented in August 2019. What we know for sure, is that one of the criteria would be the technical solution. Please, make sure that at least one of your team members can code. Is there any age limit for attendees of the event? Yes, you have to be at least 18 years old on the day of the event. 

Kingdom Code is a community of Christians who work in the world of technology- whether you are a designer, developer, data analyst, game engineer, product manager, digital marketer, entrepreneur or something else entirely in tech this is a group for you. It's a month until Kingdom Code BUILD, our annual hackathon, and we're beginning to think about what we're going to be making… We're inviting the mission agencies that we will be partnering with for BUILD to join us to share more about what they do and their hackathon challenges with us. We're going to condense Google Venture's Design Sprint down to an hour and a bit to work through some techniques to come up with ideas, to refine those ideas, and then get them ready to be pitched at the hackathon. If you're still considering if you want to join the hackathon, this is a great evening to come along to, get a flavour of the projects that will be worked on and get to know some people in the Kingdom Code community. Or if you just want to see how five days can be squeezed into such a short period of time… that's worth coming to see as well! We'll be digging into these two challenge areas: How can we equip Christians to use the Bible more in evangelism? How might we resource your local church to serve and include the poor? We've got a full write up of the challenges over on the Kingdom Code BUILD page. This is event is part of the Kingdom Code Think series. As a community of Christians exploring the world of technology we want to be thinking, discussing and exploring how our faith shapes and changes what we do. Find out more at kingdomcode.org.uk. City leadersAlice CreaseyAlasdair Munday I can't make this event, will there be more?Absolutely! Sign up to the mailing list or follow Kingdom Code on Twitter to stay in touch.Have any questions?Ping us a message on Twitter: @kcodeuk
