COVID-19 has placed a heavy burden on developing countries unravelling enormous social and economic consequences. BMZ together with ?Team Europe? partners including the EU Commission, other EU member states, tech companies and civil society are calling out the global hackathon #SmartDevelopmentHack. We invite you to become a part of this mission. The ?Call for Solutions https://sv-digitalisierung.de/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=312&qid=3919? is now open until 27.04.2020!
We are calling for digital solutions worldwide to adapt them to the challenges faced in developing countries and to immediately implement them against the COVID-19 crisis. This will be achieved through a match-making of digital solution providers and implementation expertise. The best teams will enter a two-day intensive hackathon, present their proposal to our jury and potentially received significant financial support for direct execution.
