00:05Valga Valga, es una ciudad de dos países, dos países, una ciudad.
00:12Pero lo que hemos encontrado es que los jóvenes de ambos lados no estaban realmente integrados, no estaban hablando.
00:18Así que la idea de Hague the Border es para que los jóvenes se trabajen juntos y crear algo que
00:23será beneficioso para la ciudad.
00:26Y crear algo especial para ellos, y crear algo especial.
00:30¿Cuál es el proyecto de Hague the Border?
00:36Usually we do hackathons for start-ups and to get like business results, but here is more like a social
00:44project.
00:46Hague the Border is like a community platform.
00:49We bring different kind of people together, we put them together to work and we put them to the teams
00:56and then they try to find solutions for different kinds of challenges.
01:04We just got them to start thinking about things they could do that would improve life for the youth.
01:10Obviously a lot of the ideas are focused around better parties, better social nights for the kids and they wanted
01:20more communal spaces for hangouts and things like this.
01:24When they saw that the Estonians had the same ideas as the Latvians, they thought, well we could put them
01:29together and this is where some of the magic happened.
01:36Hackathon is like a network, building the networks, people come together, they build here like long lasting friendships and maybe
01:44even find some potential business partners.
01:46If Estonians and Latvians came to the hackathon, they were like ice cubes, but by the end of the hackathon
01:53this ice has melted.
01:55All right, thanks.
