Wikimedia CH’s Education Programme is supporting the ‘bitmark Hackathon 2024’ project with a Rapid Grant. The hackathon will take place on 21 and 22 November at Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Zurich, Mythenquai 10, or remotely.

The hackathon will give our Education team insight into the challenges that classically structured publishing houses face in the digital world. Publishers are important stakeholders in the Swiss education landscape. The support of the project should contribute to better networking in this field.

The hackathon is themed ‘Together for Interoperability’ and brings together publishers, EdTech companies and interested parties to advance the digitisation and interoperability of educational content using the bitmark standard.

The bitmark Hackathon is organised by the non-profit bitmark Association, supported by the i Swiss EdTech Collider and the European EdTech Alliance.

Wikimedia CH is committed to bringing free educational content to the world. Our activities focus on creating added value for teachers and learners in Switzerland. In education, we not only focus on training the next generation of Wikipedians, but also pursue the concept of continuous learning for all.
