Join us for a hackathon to address the systemic, legal corruption that is weakening our public institutions around the world. Help us solve problems in government, law, medicine, public health, academia, finance, and economics. Presented by the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics at Harvard University and MIT Center for Civic Media.


Over the last five years, hundreds of researchers, journalists, activists, and scholars from various disciplines have come together at the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics, under the direction of Lawrence Lessig, to investigate, map, and find solutions for institutional corruption. We now need your help in translating this work into usable tools for the public.


Participants with the best projects will be invited to present at the Ending Institutional Corruption Conference at Harvard Law School on May 2.
