I am reposting this message from Christine Hoffman at the ILO.

Please circulate among your networks! We look for digital innovators from Africa.

Are you a digital entrepreneur using technology to expand access to work, training, and better opportunities? hashtag#HacktheDivide is your chance to take your ideas further—starting with a two-day hackathon in Nairobi, and continuing with incubation support in Italy.
Applications are open to young digital innovators (aged 18-35) from 25 African countries to co-create inclusive tech solutions that address real challenges such as youth employment, digital inclusion, and labour mobility.
You’ll spend two days in Nairobi collaborating in teams, supported by expert mentorship, and interacting directly with global institutions and policy leaders shaping Africa’s digital future.
Travel, accommodation, and meals will be covered for all selected participants.
