Innovate 4 Cities Hackathon

Join a fully hybrid hackathon to innovate and inspire solutions for city climate action! Receive mentorship, data and access to experts and help cities build resilience and adapt to climate change. Pitch your solution virtually or in person at the 2024 Innovate4Cities Conference (I4C24) in Montréal, Canada and receive support to see your idea come to life. Regional and global knowledge priorities on cities and climate change, synthesized for action: Innovate4Cities is underpinned by the Global Research and Action Agenda on Cities and Climate Change Science (GRAA) – a key outcome of the IPCC Cities Conference in 2018, and the foundation for the research and innovation needed to meet Paris Agreement goals. The Innovate4Cities initiative As a city-focused research and innovation initiative under the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate and Energy (GCoM) alliance, Innovate4Cities is leading the charge in revolutionizing how cities worldwide address climate challenges. This group was created by Hackathon participants to exchange ideas through the development of the competition.
