In an increasingly technology-driven world, it is crucial to encourage female participation in STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) is crucial. Coding for Girls seeks to bridge this gap by offering a free, online course free that, together with professional experts in the field, introduces participants to the fascinating world of STEM and artificial intelligence.
The relevance of STEM education for girls in today’s global context cannot be underestimated. According to the World Economic Forum, it is estimated that 65% of children entering elementary school today will work in roles that do not yet exist, many of which will be in STEM-related areas. Preparing girls from an early age for these future roles is crucial to ensure their full and equal participation in tomorrow’s economy.
Florencia Olmos, Data Analyst and instructor at Coding for Girls, emphasizes this initiative: “Technology has no gender or limits. In Coding For Girls we want to motivate girls to participate and later lead in the STEM world, starting from the basics of programming and artificial intelligence. Every line of code we write is a step towards a future where women are protagonists in the technological revolution”.
The course, delivered through Zoom consists of 8 online classes of 1:15 hrs, focuses on developing coding skills and provides an overview of artificial intelligence. In addition, it will feature leading exponents in the field of artificial intelligence, who will share experiences and motivate girls to explore the exciting world of technology.
