GEO Indigenous COVID-19 Hackathon
GEO Indigenous COVID-19 Hackathon is an initiative of the Group on Earth Observations (GEO), which aims to develop digital solutions to respond to the challenges faced by indigenous communities during the COVID-19 pandemic. The hackathon seeks, furthermore, to increase the response capabilities of the communities themselves. For this purpose, although participation is open, the organizers sought to include indigenous representatives in the hackathon. Indigenous leaders from countries such as Ecuador, Mexico, Brazil and Peru, among others, participated in the initiative.
