Hackers Helping to Fight COVID-19
The unprecedented health threats and global response to the COVID-19 pandemic
have impacted everyone.
Many hackers, makers, educators, and others have put
their skills to use by contributing to solutions to a wide range of challenges.
These contributions are the essence of the hacker spirit: People using their skills, intelligence and energy to help other people. Hackers are helping by designing, making and distributing much-needed medical supplies. They are helping by creating communication forums, informative websites, software, and safe entertainment. They are helping by fighting disinformation, and doing research and experimentation to investigate solutions and mitigations.
On this page, we have collected links to some of the projects, products, groups, and activities that highlight how hackers are helping.
