Girls in ICT

Skills, safety and opportunity for girls

Digital learning in Ugunja starts with the people who will use the network every day: pupils, teachers and residents. ICT Girls* focuses that work on girls, who are too often last in line for a device, a lesson or a chance to lead.

The work is practical: hands-on sessions, digital safety and the confidence to use connectivity for learning, work and enterprise.

Our strategy

Learn by doing, in places girls can actually reach — schools and the Kijiji Yeetu Centre — with champions from the community itself.

What this looks like

01

Digital skills

Hands-on sessions that turn the internet into a learning tool: research, reading, revision and creating — not just browsing.

02

Digital safety

Privacy, digital safety and cybersecurity lessons, so girls can use the internet with confidence and know how to stay safe.

03

Opportunity

Skills that open new channels for work and enterprise, especially for those who cannot leave the village.

A digital future girls can lead
