Let's get Girls EXCITED ABOUT SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY.
We are Equipping The Next Generation TechStars In Africa.
Only 15% of junior college girls make choices for Science/Technology subjects at senior level & in the University. It is equally important that women participate in the fields of Science & Engineering- STEM fields, because these areas are essential for innovation and economic growth.
We have a designed a framework that enables us to reach out to young girls and women in Africa, inspired and supported to choose STEEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Entrepreneurship, Mathematics) subjects as part of their post secondary goals.
Tech4Her is driven to create & expand more economic opportunities for girls and women by providing them with STEM knowledge, skills, tools, and mentoring leveraging the power of Technology. Enabling women to enter STEM jobs & adapt the digital skills to whatever profession they are currently doing will provide a boost to the economy.
Investing in girls’ education transforms communities, countries and the entire world. Girls who receive an education are less likely to marry young and more likely to lead healthy, productive lives.
They earn higher incomes, participate in the decisions that most affect them, and build better futures for themselves and their families.
PROJECT 2030
Women Technology Academy- 100,000 Facility In Lagos, Accra & Kigali.
We are building the largest Technology Academy For females in Africa. Equipped with computers, libraries, incubation hub and mentors. Yes, We are investing in the next generation female science and tech leaders. Graduates from the Academy have access to internships, job placements, exchange programs in best companies in Africa and the world.
Hello Sophia StoryBook Series (1 million Print copies)
Getting girls into programming, one children’s book at a time. As part of our efforts to create exciting projects to inspire girls to choose STEM Subjects we are currently working to publish our story series on 'Hello Sophia'. The storybooks will be distributed across schools in Africa.
STEM Kits for 5,000,000 Girls in junior college.
Through the local school clubs run by Tech4her Student ambassadors, members of the club will have access to STEM Kits. STEM Kits such as Chemistry Experiment Kit, Circuit Board Electricity Kit, Classroom Measurement Kit, Space Science Kit Biology LAB Kit. They can use these Kits to create simple tech products and help them find technology very interesting.
