Introducing the Karatu Girls Initiative: Empowering the Next Generation of Female Tech Leaders
At Mematech, we are committed to bridging the digital divide and fostering inclusivity in the technology sector. As part of our efforts, we are proud to introduce the Karatu Girls initiative, a key program designed to introduce secondary school girls in Nigeria to the transformative power of technology.
Our Mission
The Karatu Girls initiative is built on the belief that every girl deserves the opportunity to succeed in the tech industry. Our mission is to inspire the next generation of female tech leaders by providing practical training and exposure to real-world opportunities. We aim to equip these young women with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to pursue careers in technology and become leaders in their communities.
The Girls in Tech Event: A Key Milestone
The recent Girls in Tech event, held in Jos, Plateau State, Nigeria, was a key milestone in the Karatu Girls initiative. The event brought together high school girls from Sunnah Community Private School, Agwan Rimi, for a transformative three-day experience. The program featured a series of motivational talks, hands-on workshops, and immersive experiences, including virtual reality sessions, data analytics, and graphic design.
Empowering Young Women through Technology
