Vision Hacker Awards 2021

The Vision Hacker Award (VHA) is a project funded by ETIC and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. In 2021, VHA aims to find and support young “vision hackers” from Japan - leaders who tackle global health issues listed in SDGs 3 by conducting projects especially in low- and middle-income countries. As a SEED Award winner, we received financial support, 6-month mentoring, and networking opportunities with various professionals and organizations.
