As we communicated last week, educational activities have kicked off for Programme Coding Girls, currently in its seventh edition [see STEM Gender Equality].
Today, the young women who will begin to work on the first module (introduction to on-line presence and websites) will be greeted to the lab by a special guest: Karen Schinnerer, Press and Culture Consul at the United States Consulate General in Naples.
Achieving gender equality in technical and scientific fields is one of the challenges promoted by the seventh edition of the national Coding Girls Programme, promoted by a “hybrid” collaborative alliance involving the United States Diplomatic Mission to Italy, Embassy of the Netherlands, Compagnia di San Paolo, Microsoft, ENI and a network of 32 academic partners. The protagonists are 15,000 young women in 24 cities. Coding Girls is scalable and replicable model with original local experiments conducted in Turin, Milan and Naples.
