WHO Sexual Health Survey Hackathon: Bring Your Ideas

The WHO/HRP and partners are looking for sexual/reproductive health researchers to provide creative ideas that will be used to develop a standardized sexual health survey instrument. Individuals who contribute highly ranked ideas and have relevant experience will be supported to join a 72-hour WHO/HRP hackathon in January, 2020. The hackathon will finalize the sexual health survey instrument and plan next steps. We are particularly interested in submissions from researchers in low and middle-income countries. Submissions will be accepted in all six official UN languages (Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish).

The open call is available on the WHO/HRP website and the deadline for entries is October 24th, 2019.
