Coding Events

In addition to coding classes and summer camps, we also host a range of events designed to increase awareness about STEM and computer science education in Africa, advocate for equity in computer science education.

Challenges + Hack-a-thons

Challenges and hackathons are one-day or weekend events that bring together girls from across our program sites and partner schools using computer science to address a specific or pressing problem facing their communities. Participants brainstorm to generate ideas, and then divide into teams to work on and validate each idea, build a prototype to test their idea, and compete for prizes and awards.

Bootcamps + Workshops
