WATSATHON
TiE Islamabad Chapter in strategic partnership with Epiphany is proud to announce “WATSATHON”, a water and sanitation hackathon by Water and Sanitation Services Peshawar (WSSP). “WATSATHON” will provide an opportunity to promote the use of mobile technology as a tool in the water and sanitation sector where programmers, software engineers, data specialists and thinkers would team up to put their skills to work in building solutions to the WSSP functions, growth and impact, and water and sanitation related challenges, which can later be put to use by WSSP on the ground to aid the communities that need them.
