London Hacks Financial Illiteracy & Financial Exclusion!

December 3rd and 4th @ Forward - NW1 0DU

On the weekend of December 3rd and 4th, Google, Microsoft, Yahoo!, NASA, HP and the World Bank, through their initiative Random Hacks of Kindness (RHoK), will bring together thousands of people in over 25 locations around the globe to "hack for humanity". 

MyBnk has secured the London license and will be running the RHoK event in London as part of the global Random Hacks of Kindness event in December - it will be the first ever addressing financial literacy and financial inclusion. We are building a social innovation community which brings together subject matter experts with volunteer designers and technologists to develop solutions through technology and collaboration, to problems relating to financial illiteracy and financial excclusion.

The main objectives of the weekend are problem solving, capacity building, partnerships, and impact. Come join a global community of social innovators and tech heroes and participate in developing practical open-tech solutions to make the world a better place.
