Welcome to Merge 2021, the world's first policy+hackathon. We're delighted to have you participate in this event to solve our society’s most pressing challenges using technology and policy, bridging the gap between STEM and the humanities. We hope that through this event, you will be continuously inspired by your teammates, peers, mentors, and speakers to nurture your interest in merging these two fields into a passion.

Applications to become a part of Merge are free of cost and your experience with combining STEM and policy doesn't need to end here. We highly encourage you to further pursue your projects past our event and to continue collaborating!
