Educating an African Girl Child through coding everywhere
In Uganda alone, there are currently, 32 universities in Uganda all accounting for a student population of about 110,000, turning out over 30,000 graduates annually. 8.5 million Are in Primary school according to National planning Authority Uganda. The consequences of the pandemics and epidemics of diseases caused a lot of problems with all these children, many leading to school dropouts and thus affecting the quality and quantity of 30,000 graduates annually. Since there has been increased mobile telephony and internet usage, education of these children can be improved with the use of technology.
We provide the best learning programs for an African child using easy to understand concepts including games, cartoon, pictures, specifying in basic concepts like building a basic website development, basic web programming, Social media advertising, Socket programming and mobile application development
Our solution serves school going children, school dropouts, girls, women and all not formal and formal workers.
Increased learning will enable children to more practical at their future careers since many of the jobs these days require computer skills. There will be equal competition between males and females in the work places as more girls will be getting access to computer skills.

- Enable personalized learning and individualized instruction for learners who are most at risk for disengagement and school drop-out
- Pilot
We are looking for strategic partnerships including schools, education enterprises, learners and computer trainers. This will enable us onboard more schools and academic institutions into our platform for easy access to leaners. We will use this opportunity to onboard more computer trainers and both professional and self-taught programmers from the pool of MIT solve community. This will increase on our trainer’s capacity in form of both quantity and quality. This will increase on our capacity to onboard many learners in our coding programs and sessions including Kid’s coding and women and girls programing sessions and programs. We will use this opportunity to improve our strategic partnerships with different schools and institutions to get access to many students and dropouts and include them in our programming challenges. This will help us scale to all Sub-Saharan Countries in the next three years and will thus will increase programming knowledge access to youths.
