On the same day 国产视频 have showed how they are #RewritingTheCode for girls with the launch of their new Code Clubs across Africa. With these innovative pilot projects, vulnerable girls and young women in Africa are being given a unique chance to learn vital technology skills in a safe space.

The pilot project 国产视频 designed to empower girls with technology through creativity and learning- will benefit between 600-700 females aged 5 to 24 in Kenya, Uganda and Senegal. Expanding to three more countries later this year.

Code Clubs are being launched by the charity 国产视频 in partnership with the companies Kano, Codeacademy and Africa Gathering. They are low-cost, sustainable and scaleable safe spaces where girls can build, learn and create through technology, creativity and coding.

Despite thousands of jobs being created in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) industries across Africa, gender discrimination, lack of access to education and technology means girls are kept out of the work force and unable to break the cycle of poverty.

Sarah Brown, President of 国产视频 said 国产视频淲ith a safe space to learn and play, a mentor to inspire, and access to technology to be able to explore, create, and code we can increase learning opportunities and empower girls to fulfil their potential. Every girl should have the opportunity to go to school, learn, grow, and have a future they choose国产视频.

#RewritingTheCode and 国产视频国产视频檚 work across Africa is supported by the players of the People国产视频檚 Postcode Lottery.
