The #VersusVirus online hackathon is an initiative of the Swiss government, and it encourages anyone from any background to join. It takes place over 48 hours from 3-5 April. Registration is open until 2 April if you want to take part, and if you have a challenge that you’d like to submit, you have until 23:59UTC on 31 March to do so.

Challenges can come from all areas of society and cover any topic that the current pandemic is making challenging. Full details of how to get involved are at https://www.versusvirus.ch(link is external) in English, French, German and Italian.
