Hack4Climate is a 4-day Climate/Blockchain hackathon event. Its objective is to mobilize the 'blockchain'/DLT (Distributed Ledger Technology) community for #ClimateAction, assuring that the Paris Climate Agreement is successfully implemented.
Hack4Climate is held with the support of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Secretariat in Bonn, Germany - during the COP23 climate conference in November 2017. It is financed by public and private sponsors, and organised as part of the Climate Ledger Initiative (CLI), an international, multi-stakeholder initiative at the intersection of climate and DLT. Hack4Climate will be the first COP-linked hackathon.

DLT minds/practitioners from all across the world will come together with one mission: to fight climate change with disruptive innovation.
Already 1,300 highly motivated individuals are involved as part of 17 prep-workshops held in global centers - from MIT/Boston and London, to Bangalore and Suriname. So far, hundreds of applications have been received. We are positively surprised by the high quality of the applications.
