About GirlsCodeToo
GirlsCodeToo is a Swiss-based non-profit organisation, founded by a motivated team of industry professionals, professors, students, and parents.
OUR MISSION
We support and encourage girls to discover coding and explore a career in tech. We believe that girls are curious, capable, and creative. We work to encourage sparks of talent and curiosity by introducing girls to software tools, different coding languages and processes that are used to build programs, websites, apps, games and robots.
Who We Are:
GirlsCodeToo is a Swiss non-profit founded in 2021 by a team of industry professionals, professors, students, and parents. Today, 34 active members, including 27 instructors, are part of our community. Since then, we’ve delivered more than 300 workshops and reached over 4,000 students across Switzerland, teaching in German, French, Italian, and English.
Empowering girls to explore technology
Our Goal
At GirlsCodeToo our goal is to close the gender gap in the tech industry and engineering universities while boosting the enrollment of girls in STEM-related education programmes and technical apprenticeships.
Achievements
Our Work
Technology Workshops
These workshops are the next step in the girls’ tech journey – for those who wish to further explore and refine their tech skills. The workshops are taught by experienced teachers selected and trained by GirlsCodeToo.
Digital Discovery
Girls are invited to ‘Get Inspired with Tech!’ in a series of workshops focused on various technology topics.
These sessions are geared towards girls aged 8-18 with no prior experience. The idea is to give girls valuable insights on how software (apps, games, websites etc.) and hardware (phones, laptops, robots etc.) work and how it is developed
