How did this come to our attention?

During our fieldwork, we noticed that while boys had greater access to digital resources, girls were often excluded due to cultural norms or lack of infrastructure. Conversations with young girls revealed a deep desire to learn and a recognition that digital skills could unlock opportunities. These insights inspired us to launch this initiative, empowering girls to thrive in the digital era.

our Digital Literacy for Girls initiative strives to:

  • Provide training programs in coding, digital tools, and online communication
  • Distribute devices like laptops or tablets to girls in underserved communities
  • Create safe online spaces by teaching cybersecurity and digital ethics
  • Foster partnerships with tech companies to open career pathways for girls
  • Ensure ongoing mentorship to guide them in leveraging their skills for education, entrepreneurship, and advocacy.
