STRIDE SheSolve 2026
Date: March 2026
Organizing unit: STRIDE
My role: Programme contributor
Where: LBS Institute of Technology for Women, Poojappura
A women's inclusive innovation hackathon at LBSITW Poojappura, held as part of International Women's Day activities.
SheSolve brought women together at LBSITW Poojappura to design around everyday needs. Held as part of International Women's Day activities, the hackathon placed empathy at the centre of innovation, with an emphasis on dignity, independence and confidence.
I contributed to the wider STRIDE effort connecting awareness with inclusive technology. SheSolve was a separate event from Thinkable and AssistX. The shared recap reports 708 participants and 228 submissions across all three hackathons, not SheSolve alone; the wider awareness sessions reached more than 1,500 students.
