#HackMyBible purposes to bring together talented individuals from different areas of specialization to brainstorm and come up with ideas of innovating new ways/apps for interacting with the Bible.

Evacuating people from an area threatened or struck by a natural or manmade disaster is extraordinarily hard. The challenge is compounded when the number of people to be evacuated is large and communication and transportation infrastructure damaged or inoperable. Hurricanes like Sandy or Katrina, earthquakes, tsunamis, terrorist attacks, war—when natural or manmade disasters occur the U.S. military plays a vital role in helping people reach safety. On 9/11 hundreds of thousands of people trapped south of the Twin Towers had to be evacuated on foot over bridges and by boat with support from the National Guard and Coast Guard. This revealed the extraordinary challenges of coordinating and executing massive evacuations. Despite routine civilian and military planning and exercises for massive evacuations, significant challenges remain for first-responders, emergency managers, and the military. MD5, in collaboration with the New York National Guard, Joint Task Force Empire Shield, Columbia University, New York University, and Galvanize, will host Escape from New York: A Massive Evacuation Hackathon, at Galvanize in New York, NY from February 22-24, 2019. This hackathon will focus on developing technical solutions to support the following: Communicate – Current alert and notification systems provide one-way communication of general information. How can we target communications to provide people with relevant and compelling information specific to their location, status, or other factors? How can we interact with the disabled, elderly, homeless, and other at-risk populations? How can we best support those who refuse to evacuate?  Track – Real-time, end-to-end tracking of evacuees is critical to managing evacuation efforts. What tools can we develop to better account for individuals and families; locate individuals who are unaccounted for; and confirm the identity and track the status of people throughout the evacuation process? How do we connect families with relatives impacted by the disaster? How can we track patients throughout the process, ensuring access to medical records and a continuum of care? Transport – Managing the movement of people out of the disaster area while simultaneously coordinating the in-flow of supplies and equipment (both bulk commodities and donations) is challenging under dynamic conditions where critical infrastructure may be pushed beyond capacity or damaged. What tools can we develop to better select collection and staging areas; coordinate and schedule transportation modes and routes; and manage the flow of personnel and resources? How can we leverage analytics and data sources (e.g., drones, social media, geographic information systems) to optimize operations and manage risk? Up to three teams can each win up to a $15,000 contract award to further develop their concept in collaboration with MD5!

In 2017, over 1,000 people died from opioid overdosing in Virginia alone (including prescription opioids, fentanyl and heroin). A Virginia Department of Health report says that opioid-related deaths in Roanoke quadrupled between 2016 and 2017. Data stewards from health and other relevant agencies across the region will provide non-sensitive, de-identified data to this challenge for the teams to explore and use. Public and open data sets will also be used.

Legaltech women in the UK! If your considering whether to participate or mentor in this year's Global Legal Hackathon #GLH2019, then you're invited to attend the GROWL London meetup. Come and discuss the hackathon and learn more about GROWL's goal to encourage a greater presence of women in the LegalTech space.

We never know the worth of water till the well is dry - Thomas Fuller 71 percent of the earth’s surface is covered with water, over 96 percent of which is in the oceans. But everywhere you look, from Mexico City to San Francisco, Cape Town to Bangalore, Jakarta to London, there is an acute shortage of water - with these cities likely to run out of fresh water in a few years. The problems faced, though, are distinct in each part of the world. While Africa faces water scarcity and drought, New York faces quality issues. Similarly, while Latin America faces acute water scarcity, Asia-Pacific deals with severe water pollution. The Global Water Hackathon is a community campaign aimed at fighting water scarcity that the modern world currently faces. If not dealt with, by 2025, an estimated 1.8 billion people will live in areas plagued by water scarcity, with two-thirds of the world’s population living in water-stressed regions. If you believe your ideas can make a difference, participate in the hackathon now!

Data science researchers in the UK! UKBlackTech invites you to participate in a 2-day hackathon at the prestigious Design Museum in London to help raise awareness of Sickle Cell Disease. The event will bring together developers, researchers, and organisations that raise awareness of the disease and work with communities affected by it. You'll be challenged to participate in live data analysis of the publication, funding and research trends in this field. You'll collaborate with other attendees to pull together data and trends and publish the results in a freely accessible research report.
