    The 2020 #CallforCode Global Challenge is expanding to address both #COVID19 and #ClimateChange, two urgent crises that have the power to compromise our health, our planet, our survival. Accept the challenge. https://ibm.co/2WvchRW

    Call for Code
     is multi-year, global initiative that brings together developers and the greater technical ecosystem to build open source technology solutions that address some of the world's most significant issues. With the proliferation of COVID-19, we recognize the urgency to act - to identify, build, and deploy solutions - so we have created an accelerated timeline for the COVID-19 Call for Code track. The initial submission deadline is Monday, April 27, and we'll announce the three top solutions on Tuesday, May 5, at the IBM Think Virtual Conference. Our goal is to work quickly to partner with those teams to get their innovations out in the field, while keeping the track open through July to continually source and showcase more solutions until we announce our global challenge winners in October.

    We are hosting a call for all clients to learn how their company can participate in the COVID-19 track of the 2020 Call for Code Global Challenge.
