ABOUT

The Michal Sela Safe@Home Hackathon is the first and only Hackathon world-wide that is dedicated to saving lives and preventing domestic violence.

Michal Michal Sela was a social worker who was brutally murdered in her home on October 3, 2019 when she was only 32 years old. Her husband and the father of her baby girl is the accused suspect. 

After this horrible tragedy, Michal’s sister, Lily Ben-Ami, founded the “Michal Sela Forum.” Lily recognized the need to educate the public about the warning signs of domestic violence, and that technology could be used in new and creative ways to prevent the next murder. 

The Michal Sela Safe@Home Hackathon in Israel is the first and only technological event designed for the development of startups to save lives and prevent violence against women in their home.
