The New Yorker has written \u2013 Estonia has great potential to beat COVID-19 virus fast and be back much stronger \u2013 but only if we move ultra fast. This time we are relying on youth, the ones who are experiencing a major part of the consequences of the quarantine, to make their contribution and voice their opinion.<\/h5>\n

During conventional hackathons people get together and form physical teams, but our hackathon will happen in a different way: we will be communicating through video calls and co-working online tools.<\/p>\n

We want to offer youth a brainstorming opportunity that adults had a couple of weeks ago, namely \u201cHack the Crisis\u201d. That idea was born instantly \u2013 Minister of Foreign Trade and Information Technology of Estonia Kaimar Karu\u2019s call for enterprises to act was enough to put Garage48\u2019s team to work. The event had around a thousand participants from 20 different countries. By now that event has become the example followed by various groups that have been organizing similar events around the world. All those events are supported by the initial organizers from Garage48 and Accelerate Estonia. Besides, some of the solutions produced during that hackathon have already been put to use.<\/p>\n

Now it is the turn for youth to get to participate in the world-wide movement and develop their own ideas, and maybe even bring them to life!<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are inviting the students of your school to take part in the hackathon that is going to take\u00a0place on 6th-9th of April, 2020, on your computer,<\/strong>\u00a0in your phone \u2013 everywhere! Register\u00a0now here\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

During the hackathon students will form teams, come up with their ideas and develop a real prototype of their solution or a whole product! The solution could, for example, ease the burdens of distance learning or provide a new way of spending free time, anything that could make our world better right now \u2013 this is all up to our young changemakers. There are awards for the teams \u2013 and winner get 2000 eur in cash!<\/p>\n

Throughout the event international and experienced mentors, professionals from the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications and the Ministry of Education and Research will be assisting the participants. The primary working languages are going to be English, Estonian and Russian.<\/p>\n
