Innovation by youth lab was founded in November 2020 with one goal in mind: to help youth transform their ideas into solutions that address social issues

Innovation by Youth Lab is a student-led organization that offers youth experiential learning opportunities that focus on tackling global social issues (as determined by the United Nation’s 17 sustainable development goals), by using technology and skills, and knowledge from other disciplines. We act as a bridge to encourage the next generations to make use of multidisciplinary collaboration between different fields in order to make an impact on the world. Innovation by Youth Lab encourages youth to reflect, innovate and take risks with their ideas. 

IBY Hacks+ 2021 is a week-long hackathon for high schoolers of all levels! We designed this hackathon with beginner hackers in mind. We decided to make this a week-long hackathon to allow hackers enough time to learn at a speed that is fast enough that will push everyone but long enough to truly learn new skills!
