The go_girl: code+create project continues this year with a new group of young women! Over the next weeks, we are planning to start with the recruitment of the new participants. Some of the young women who completed the programme last year (the go_girl: code+create ‘pioneers’) will act as mentors for the new participants and will share their experiences and newly gained coding skills through peer-to-peer learning. We are very grateful to our funders for this fantastic opportunity and are all very excited that our weekly coding sessions will start again soon. More updates to follow!
At a glance
go_girl: code+create is a project at the Department of Education, University of Oxford, run in partnership with the Oxfordshire County Council's Early Intervention Service. In line with Oxford’s targets in its Access Agreement with the Office for Fair Access, this interdisciplinary project complements existing programmes aimed at widening access to the University of Oxford, but tackles the problem in a fundamentally new way using technology. The research was originally supported by the University of Oxford IT Innovation Challenges Seed Fund and has received subsequent funding from Goldman Sachs Gives.
