It's time to rethink technology.

It is clear that there are many unintended consequences of existing technology on our mental and emotional health. How can we better design or enhance these apps to mitigate their potential downsides while still enabling everyone to fully enjoy their upsides?

Let's come together to majorly redesign tech tools in a more meaningful, socially responsible way, leveraging the power of a truly interdisciplinary dialogue, including academics, designers, ethicists, computer scientists, psychologists, entrepreneurs, educators, and many more. The final product for this hackathon is a 5 minute product proposal to humanely redesign an existing technology.
