Get Ready to Hack the World's Freshwater Laboratory
We are inviting all students and young professionals (ages 18 to 30) with coding experience and an interest in freshwater science, data science, or web and software design to join us in an exciting new hackathon.
You will work alongside like-minded peers to use a dataset that has been tracking the health of Canada’s fresh water for over 50 years to build solutions to real environmental issues—and help protect Canada’s precious fresh water supplies.
You will learn how to build a data product from start to finish, collaborate with a team, and work with established experts in the field who spend their days tackling issues from pollution and biodiversity loss to climate change.
And win some incredible prizes along the way...
