Solve - a - Thon | National Hackathon

Overview:

AI for Sustainable Development Goals (AI for SDGs):

Solve-a-Thon 2026 is a National 24-Hour Hackathon organized by the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, School of Science & Technology (SST), Swami Rama Himalayan University (SRHU), Dehradun, Uttarakhand.

Scheduled for 27–28 November 2026, Solve-a-Thon is designed to bring together student innovators, programmers, AI/ML enthusiasts, developers, researchers, and multidisciplinary problem-solvers from across India to develop innovative technology-driven solutions for real-world challenges aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The hackathon focuses on the theme “AI for SDGs”, encouraging participants to explore the use of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science, Software Development, and other relevant emerging technologies to address challenges in areas such as Healthcare, Education, Climate Action, Agriculture, Smart Cities, Governance, Clean Water, and Open Innovation.

Solve-a-Thon is designed as more than a conventional coding competition. It provides participants with an opportunity to identify a meaningful problem, develop an innovative solution, build a functional prototype, receive technical guidance, and demonstrate their work before an expert evaluation panel.

The Solve-a-Thon Challenge:

The challenge is simple:

• Identify a real-world problem.

• Build an innovative technology-driven solution.

• Demonstrate how your solution can create meaningful impact.

Participants will work in teams to transform their ideas into functional prototypes, applications, models, or demonstrable proofs of concept.

The hackathon emphasizes not only coding and technical implementation but also innovation, problem relevance, feasibility, practical applicability, social/environmental impact, scalability, and the team's understanding of the proposed solution.

Hackathon Themes:

Participants can develop solutions under any of the following themes:

• AI for Healthcare: Develop innovative AI-powered solutions addressing healthcare challenges, patient support, health monitoring, diagnostics, preventive healthcare, accessibility, and related real-world healthcare needs.

• AI for Education: Build intelligent solutions that can improve teaching and learning, personalized education, assessment, educational accessibility, student engagement, and other challenges in the education ecosystem.

• AI for Climate Action: Use AI and emerging technologies…
