#TogetherWeHack

#TogetherWeHack (Span. LoHackeamosEntreTodos) is a hackathon that seeks to design digital solutions to the challenges that arise as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The hackathon had 3 editions in which more than 900 people with different backgrounds participated, including programmers, graphic designers, data scientists and health professionals. The participants organized working groups focused on the following fields: technology and society, technology and health, and technology and information. The result of the hackathon is the design of projects, which the work teams can, if they have an interest and it is feasible, continue developing so that they are implemented. The hackathon?s website describes the 21 projects developed along the first two editions.
