The winners of the Victorian Challenges were announced at last night's (12/10) GovHack Victoria and ACT awards event.
Three challenges were crafted with the help of a number of agencies across government and made available for GovHackers to provide new perspectives and ideas to approach the problems.
This year's themes included better management of water resources, transports solutions post-COVID-19 and data security.
