About the FACT Challenge
The Challenge theme this year is “Collaborate for Social Justice." This theme was chosen because beneath all the new platforms, widgets, tools, social media and innovative products lies the potential for people to collaborate in new ways with one another.
The FACT Challenge seeks to surface innovative projects that leverage web and/or mobile technologies to foster collaboration around social justice issues.
