The Authority and the International Telecommunication Union ITU have kicked off a landmark programme to equip young African girls with essential digital and coding skills, marking a major step toward narrowing the continent's gender digital divide.
The Africa Girls Can Code Initiative AGCCI was launched in Nairobi in a ceremony attended by ICT leaders, educators, and young learners from across the region.
Speaking on behalf of the Director-General, CA's Human Resource and Administration Director Ms. Reginah Kemboi underscored that the digital economy can only thrive when girls are fully empowered to participate and lead in the technology space. ITU representatives echoed this, stressing the need to unlock the potential of Africa's young women to drive sustainable growth.
