Name & Title

The Girls Code Initiative

Worldie

Description

The Girls Code aims to increase the number of girls in tech in the world as a whole. Their programs educate, equip, and inspire girls with the computing skills they’ll need to pursue 21st century opportunities. They give girls the skills and resources they need for careers beyond the classroom. They help girls build the confidence they need to succeed in a traditionally male-dominated industry. They want to increase the number of women in the digital space by empowering girls of ages 7 and above to become innovators in STEM fields, leaders in their communities, and builders of their own futures through exposure to computer science and technology. They aim to provide African youth with the skills to occupy some of the 1.4 million computing job openings expected to be available in the world by 2020, and to train 1 million girls by 2025.
