About
Random Hacks of Kindness (RHoK) is a global initiative of over 5,500 technology practitioners in over 30 countries working together to make the world a better place by "developing practical, open source technology solutions to respond to some of the most complex challenges facing humanity."One of the key events used by Random Hacks of Kindness is the "hackathon."After a problem/issue has been identified, hackers come together during the hackathon to find creative solutions/projects that are then implemented in partnership with global and regional companies and organizations."That narrative of putting competition aside for a minute and really working together to collaborate and build things that help people and to really embed them within local communities really took hold. So we saw a huge growth in [Random Hacks of Kindness], and people really grasped on to that narrative of collaboration over competition and using whatever skills you have to make a difference in your local community."
