Young people learn web development skills at Social Hackers Academy in Athens, Greece, on Jan. 24, 2018. In a lively district of the Greek capital, the newly-founded NGO Athens Social Hackers Academy trains marginalized youth in software engineering to help them land jobs and build a better future.
