We achieve this through educative programmes, encouraging girls to consider a career in technology by participating in STEM programmes, technology boot camps with partner organizations among others.
Getting Onboard
Looking into the numerous barriers preventing qualified women from getting hired in the tech sector. From who is doing the hiring, to workplace policies preventing women from landing that tech job. We do this by leading the conversation on workplace policies and barriers restricting qualified women from participating in the tech sector.
