Hack4Freedom is a women-focused hackathon series building open-source freedom technology across the 5 cities in Africa and Brasil - organized by Evento.
We bring together female software developers to learn, build, and ship tools using Bitcoin, Lightning, Nostr, and ecash - technologies that expand financial freedom, privacy, and access in regions where they matter most.
Hack4Freedom is not a weekend hack. It is an education-first, execution-driven program designed to move participants from learning → building → contributing to real open-source projects.
Hack4Freedom exists to make freedom technology more inclusive, more global, and more human.
Each city has its own GitHub repository containing applications, resources, speakers, and projects.
