What
The #AttractYoung hackathon begins with inviting young people to share their view on the societal challenges that need to be addressed – or better – solved, by 2025.
The best applicants will be divided into international interdisciplinary teams. Each team will be composed of 5-7 members, bringing in different talents, knowledge, ideas, successes and backgrounds.
During the two-day hackathon teams will get support from carefully selected coaches and the group of detector experts.
Prizes
Up to 10 #AttractYoung participants selected by the Panel will be awarded a 5-day visit to CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) / ESRF (European Synchrotron Radiation Facility) to further brainstorm on their ideas. All expenses paid.
