Dmytro Aranchii was a mentor at the Community Innovation Hackathon in Kyiv. He was deeply impressed by the teams he supervised.

Fight Club, who developed an interactive map for Konotop.

LOCARIA, who created a digital heritage space for Makariv.

The level of commitment, teamwork, and professionalism they demonstrated as future specialists was truly remarkable. Seeing such motivated young talents shaping meaningful projects for their cities is both inspiring and encouraging for the future.

The hackathons are held within the framework of the 'Viability+' project: Economic Integration of Internally Displaced Persons and War-Affected People, implemented by the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) with financial support from the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) through the KfW Development Bank.

The experience proved that when architecture and technology meet genuine synergy, high-quality community solutions can emerge in a matter of hours. Our thanks to the teams for their drive and to Synchro Space for such a meaningful experience!
