Code4CT works to make sure that young women - particularly black women - are included in the tech industry. Computer Science, Engineering and IT should all be options that young women consider as study fields, but right now, there are 5 times fewer girls taking IT as a school subject in the Western Cape than boys. Through lack of exposure to coding, many young women think coding is “scary”, “difficult” and “boring”. Code for Cape Town intervenes and introduces young women to coding during high school. We give young women the chance to discover that coding is creative and a powerful tool to create change. Most important of all, we let young women discover that they are more than able to code!
