This International Women's Day 2025, Afro-Tech Girls (ATG) aims to raise $5,000 to provide 5 laptops for promising female STEM graduates in Nigeria. As we answer the global call to "Accelerate Action" for gender equality, we are taking immediate steps to equip young African women with the digital tools essential for their STEM careers.
In Nigeria's digital landscape, the lack of personal computers widens the gender gap in STEM. Talented women face a critical barrier: they cannot fully participate in the digital economy without reliable access to laptops. This digital divide particularly affects female graduates, creating a cycle where limited tech access leads to reduced STEM opportunities. Without these essential tools, promising professionals risk falling behind in an increasingly digital world.
Through our IWD 2025 campaign, ATG will provide 5 high-quality laptops to dedicated female STEM graduates with industry-standard programming and data analysis software. Recipients selected based on merit and STEM potential will join ATG's established mentorship network. This initiative builds on our decade-long commitment to empowering African women in technology, providing both essential tools and guidance for career success.
Each laptop serves as a catalyst for change in our recipients' STEM journeys. These tools enable them to accelerate their professional development through hands-on technical work while accessing global learning platforms. Recipients can actively participate in virtual mentorship, develop their expertise, and launch innovative projects. With these resources, they're empowered to become role models for the next generation of women in STEM.
