ICTworks

The global gender gap in technology continues event today. Women and girls are underrepresented in technology ownership, digital literacy, and STEM skills of all types. We need to celebrate and promote programs that will empower and inspire young women from around the world to pursue careers in science and technology.

TechGirls Interactive Technology and Computer Camp

TechGirls is an international summer exchange program designed to connect and support the next generation of women leaders in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics by providing them access and opportunities to advance their skills and pursue their dreams.
