Students from Universitat Jaume I took part in the UJILab Innovation Hackathon on extreme weather events, organised by the INCREA Chair with the support of the Regional Ministry of Innovation. Over the course of five hours, six multidisciplinary teams worked on innovative proposals to tackle the consequences of the heavy rains that affected the province of Valencia. The challenges focused on emergency management, mental health support and strengthening community resilience. Solutions ranged from fake news detection tools to neighbourhood support networks and mental health apps.

The winning team, Storm, presented a web platform for real-time emergency localisation and rapid response coordination. The jury evaluated the proposals based on feasibility, social impact and innovation. The initiative forms part of the #ReptadorsUJI challenge programme and reflects UJI’s commitment to fostering key entrepreneurial skills such as creativity, critical thinking and collaboration.
