The European Commission is once again launching the Digital Education Hackathon (DigiEduHack) – a global innovation marathon that brings together citizens, organisations, and communities to co-create solutions to today’s digital education challenges.
The 6th edition of DigiEduHack will take place between 7 and 16 November 2025, featuring a series of 24-hour local hackathons across Europe and worldwide. Participants of all ages, skills, and backgrounds will collaborate to develop creative solutions under eight challenge categories, including:
-
artificial intelligence in education,
-
digital well-being,
-
accessibility,
-
data-driven education.
Why join?
DigiEduHack is more than an event – it is a global movement. It gives participants the opportunity to gain new skills, connect with creative minds, test innovative ideas, and contribute to shaping the future of education in the 21st century.
In 2024, 51 hackathons across 25 countries engaged over 1,700 participants, who developed more than 450 innovative solutions, with 4 being selected as Global Winners.
