Description:
As humanity faces multiple existential threats, students have stepped up like never before, joining the ranks of developer activists. Through programs like Call for Code, they are crafting practical and scalable solutions to address the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, and racial injustice. Student participation is crucial to the success of this movement, as students across the globe contribute revolutionary ideas grounded in their own experiences and iterate upon ideas from fellow students.
