After the fun online summer sessions, during which the young women developed a ‘Don’t touch your face’ app, the participatory sessions of the go_girl project have now come to an end, and we have started the evaluatory phase of the project. A few publications are in the pipeline, so please watch this space!

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.
