ICT

ICT Information Communication Technology

Youth and women need accurate and reliable information; right strategies and tools for engage themselves and community in general. However, many still lack access to information, skills and Internet services. For example, computer is given less attention and taught as a package. In the end, wide gender-digital gap is experienced, unemployment and general under-development. Bridging this gap, we identify, partner and link youth and women with opportunities and programs that enable them to advance in ICT. Key partners include Kaggle, Ajira, DOT Kenya, Technnovation Girls among others.
