A New Generation Of Innovators For Africa

The idea of helping the world run better and improving people’s lives is as much about what we do today as it is about how we empower tomorrow. In no place is this more true than across the African continent, where over 10 days hundreds of activities will be organized to help 20,000 young people learn the basics of writing code.
Think about this – there are more than 8 billion computing devices in the world, but only 50 million people who actually know how to program and interact with those devices. Africa Code Week is a significant opportunity to overturn that imbalance. But more than just giving future developers the ability to be technological innovators, we’re giving young people the tools to fulfill their own dreams.
