What is PRIMEATHON?
PRIMEATHON is an umbrella concept for collaborative online international learning (COIL) opportunities. The name comes from the international association PRIME Networking and the COIL activities being hackathon events. A hackathon event challenges students to get involved in problem and solution based learning, where they must collaborate and present a solution to a dilemma, in a limited time frame (24h).
Under the PRIMEATHON umbrella we have (so far) developed two different hackathon events: HACKOFFICE and HACKMARKET. The events take their starting point from the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals, focusing on sustainable solutions for future challenges.
