IBM Call for Code University Edition
When: Wednesday, April 22nd 2020, 12:00 pm EDT - Friday, July 31st 2020,

Now in its third year, the Call for Code Global Challenge is a
multi-year global initiative that rallies developers, visionaries, and
problem solvers to create practical, effective, and high-quality
applications based on cloud, data, and artificial intelligence that can
have an immediate and lasting impact on humanitarian issues. Call for
Code brings start-up, academic, community, and enterprise developers
together and inspires them to solve the most pressing societal issues of
our time.
This years Call for Code Challenge has been expanded to two tracks
in order to tackle two life-altering world problems: COVID-19 and
climate change. These issues have the power to compromise our health,
our planet and our survival - and need to be addressed now. More
information about this years challenge can be found on the
Challenge homepage: https://callforcode.org/
Additionally, in partnership with the Clinton Global Initiative
University (CGI U), we are launching the inaugural University Edition of
the 2020 Call for Code Global Challenge. This will activate student
developers, like you, to tackle these world problems. Through a series
of virtual hackathons, workshops and other learning opportunities, you
will be enabled with the skills necessary to work as a team and create
solutions to these issues.
The 2020 Call for Code Global Challenge - University Edition will
kick-off on Earth Day, April 22, with a virtual introduction by
IBMs Chief Developer Advocate and GM Willie Tejada and a special
guest speaker to be revealed soon! Following the session, which will
include a Q&A, our developer advocates will host workshops to get
you started on your projects.
Stay tuned in the Slack Workspace (add the #University channel) for
information on upcoming virtual hackathons, enablement sessions, office
hours and more!
We will be supporting you every step of the way. From helping you
construct a team, to ideation sessions. From roadblocks in your project,
to how to present what youve created. For any problem you run
into, there will be an IBMer excited to work through it with you.
You are the future, and we hope you will join us by answering the call
to make a brighter tomorrow for our planet. There has never been a more
important time than right now to use technology for good.
