Hackathons are fun! People go there to learn, meet new colleagues, intensively work on a collaborative project, and mix pizza with energy drinks. However, for transgender community and other minorities, hackathons can have an uncomfortable atmosphere. Some transgender and non-conforming people that, although enjoying hackathons, decided not to participate anymore, afraid of LGBQTPhobia and other discomforts. In this paper we surveyed 44 trans and cis hackathons participants and interviewed seven transgender ones. By understanding their needs and challenges, we introduce five recommendations to make hackathons more inclusive.

黑客马拉松的包容性如何?

黑客马拉松很有趣!人们去那里学习,结识新同事,集中精力开展一个合作项目,并将比萨饼与能量饮料混合。然而,对于跨性别社区和其他少数族裔来说,黑客马拉松可能会带来不舒服的气氛。一些跨性别和不合规的人,虽然喜欢黑客马拉松,但决定不再参加,因为害怕 LGBQTPhobia 和其他不适。在本文中,我们调查了 44 名跨性别和顺式黑客马拉松参与者,并采访了 7 名跨性别者。通过了解他们的需求和挑战,我们提出了五项建议,以使黑客马拉松更具包容性。
