CAPHIA HACKATHON

Theme: Reducing vaping harms in young people

This event brings together current and future leaders to reduce vaping harms in young people by leveraging public health approaches with design thinking principles.

Hackathon Challenges:

Public Health student teams will choose one of the following challenges to collaboratively investigate, analyse and build a solution to contribute to reducing vaping harms in young people.
