Dear Partners,
I trust this message finds you well during this season. We are pleased to provide you with our report updating you on the significant progress of the SHE CREATES CAMP. Your unwavering support has been instrumental in our success. We appreciate your continued partnership and commitment to our mission.
Please find the details of our progress outlined below.
The Women’s Technology Empowerment Centre (W.TEC) successfully trained 19 girls from various schools and diverse backgrounds through the 2024 She Creates Camp, the camp wouldn’t have been successful without the support of our partners, facilitators and volunteers.
The 2024 She Creates Camp was centred around the theme "Eco-sustainability with Tech" The curriculum was designed to inspire and equip the girls with the knowledge and skills necessary to become environmental advocates and innovators.
To evaluate how effectively the camp met its objectives, we assessed the impact of its activities on the participants using two main tools:
1. PreCamp Evaluation Test: At the beginning of the She Creates camp, participants completed a series of open-ended questions designed to assess their initial understanding of the camp's focus on "Eco-Sustainability with Tech: AI & IoT" and their interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). These questions allowed the girls to share relevant answers based on their existing knowledge.
2. Post-Camp Evaluation Test: At the end of the camp, the participants answered similar questions to those in the pre-camp test. This assessment helped determine whether the students had acquired new knowledge and skills in previously unfamiliar areas after their two-week participation in the intensive technology classes.
The She Creates Camp confidently fulfilled its objectives of educating, inspiring, and empowering 19 young girls. By the end of the two-week program, participants had developed a strong awareness of environmental issues, gained essential insights into STEM careers, and acquired practical skills in technology and leadership. Through immersive excursions and workshops focused on real-world sustainability practices, the girls emerged confident and motivated to take impactful action in their communities.
After the She Creates Camp, participants are welcomed into the W.TEC Alumnae community, where they receive valuable information and access to various opportunities. They are also invited to join our network of volunteers, enabling them to collaborate on diverse programs and contribute positively to society. As we plan towards the 2025 She Creates Camp we will be sure to keep you updated.
We want to send a big thank you to the GlobalGiving team for your amazing support! You've played a huge role in making the She Creates Camp a success, and we couldn’t have done it without you. Your contributions have helped us reach even more beneficiaries and make a bigger impact. We’re excited about continuing our partnership as we work together to empower the next generation of female tech leaders and environmental advocates. Thanks for being such an important part of our journey!
