Challenge

Millions of young people in Brazil, especially those from underserved communities like Jardim Pantanal, face limited access to quality education, digital tools, and career guidance. While the tech industry grows rapidly, these youth are often excluded due to a lack of digital literacy, formal training, and social connections. Traditional education systems are not designed to prepare them for the demands of the modern workforce, especially in areas like programming, data, artificial intelligence.

Solution

+1Code provides free, high-quality training in technology to young people from low-income communities, with a practical, hands-on approach. Through in-person and hybrid programs in locations like Jardim Pantanal and Colegio Mao Amiga, students learn programming, digital skills, soft skills, and even English, everything they need to thrive in the digital economy. The project connects youth with real job opportunities, mentors, and access to tech platforms.

Long-Term Impact

Over time, this project will help build a more inclusive, diverse, and prepared workforce in Brazil's tech sector. By training youth from vulnerable communities and connecting them with real opportunities, we not only increase their income and quality of life but also reduce social inequality and strengthen local economies. As they grow, they inspire others, creating a ripple effect that transforms entire communities
