AkiraChix
www.akirachix.comEmpowering women to participate fully in economic life across all sectors is essential to build stronger economies, achieve internationally agreed goals for development and sustainability, and improve the quality of life for women, men, families, and communities. In reference to education, Science and technology education in schools in Kenya is still at the lowest among girls and young women because of lack of exposure and awareness amongst teachers and students, poor financing for schools and teachers, lack of tools and equipment, and lack of the right guidance. As AkiraChix, we challenge the status quo by championing more young women and girls to be creators, drivers, decision-makers, and leaders by equipping them with 21st Century skills and knowledge, particularly in ICT. Young women and girls, we believe, should lead and not just be consumers of technology.
