🌍 2026 World Engineering Day Hackathon

REGISTRATIONS NOW OPEN!

We’re thrilled to announce that registrations are NOW OPEN for the 2026 World Engineering Day Hackathon!

The World Engineering Day Hackathon is a unique international competition that brings together bright minds from across the globe to tackle some of the world’s most pressing challenges — using the power of engineering, creativity, and collaboration to design real-world solutions that advance the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

This year’s Hackathon focuses on SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure — building resilient infrastructure, promoting inclusive and sustainable industrialisation, and fostering innovation.

From smarter cities and cleaner energy systems to sustainable transport and equitable digital access, SDG 9 is all about driving progress that benefits both people and the planet.

Join us for a Hackathon like no other, where you can use your skills to:

Design and build smarter urban systems for a livable, sustainable future
Innovate ways to produce and reuse resources responsibly
Create solutions that empower communities and protect the environment both under the water and on land.

The World Engineering Day (WED) for Sustainable Development is celebrated on 4th March, but the Hackathon runs in the lead-up — giving participants the chance to collaborate, problem-solve, and innovate together on a global stage.

Whether you’re an engineering student, secondary school student, or someone from another discipline with a passion for creating change, you’re invited to join.

👉 Register as an individual, then form a team to develop your idea and pitch a solution to a real-world problem.

Together, we can engineer a future that’s sustainable, resilient, and inclusive — where innovation serves people and the planet.
