UNLEASH Climate Catalyst Hackathon

The UNLEASH Climate Catalyst Hackathon brings together youth from across Pakistan to develop actionable solutions for climate challenges over two days. Seventeen teams tackled topics such as solar-powered water pumps, deforestation policies, a plastic waste management app, a carbon footprint calculator, agricultural hydroponics, and a solar energy research startup. The winning team, Green Hackers, proposed a solar-powered groundwater pump delivering safe water to the community, with mentorship and follow-up opportunities through the YGA Climate Forum.

Youth from across Pakistan participated in the event; 29 participants in total.
