Empowering African Girls Through AI Education
Reaching Out to African Girls Initiative is a pan-African nonprofit organization delivering hands-on training and transformative education in technology, artificial intelligence, life skills, and leadership to girls and young women across Africa.
We believe that tech and AI education are essential opportunities, not privileges. Our work focuses on breaking down systemic and social barriers by designing inclusive, community-based programs that empower African girls to build confidence, digital fluency, and ethical awareness.
