Climathon is a global movement of city officials and citizens dedicated to solving their city’s climate challenges through innovation. Originally conceptualised as a 24-hour hackathon by Climate-KIC, Climathon has since taken off as a global movement, engaging citizens on climate action—and providing cities with continued support on the unique challenges they face. With an issue as pressing as climate change, we cannot afford inaction. Climathon gives cities the opportunity to take their future into their own hands and implement grassroots solutions—empowering their own citizens along the way. Cities identify their climate challenges and call on their citizens to come up with innovative solutions. Citizens, city officials, and partners connect under a shared vision for a healthier city, which is manifested in a 24-hour hackathon to find innovative city solutions. Innovation happens when diverse perspectives are brought together—creating both tangible climate solutions for cities and empowered communities. Climathon is more than a hackathon, it's a movement. With an issue as pressing as climate change, we cannot afford inaction. Climathon gives cities the opportunity to take their future into their own hands and implement grassroots solutions—empowering their own citizens along the way. The Climathon Malta movement is manifested in a 24-hour hackathon on the 25th/26th and 27th October 2019. During the hackathon, entrepreneurs, students, developers and more, get together to solve a climate challenge their city is facing.
