Safaricom, in collaboration with Nairobi City County Government, recently had their second Kids to Code workshop at Eastlands Library in Nairobi, Kenya.

Held on April 22, the program aims to engage children in science-based experiments using interactive kits that simulate real-world applications while equipping them with digital literacy skills at an early age.

“Exciting times at Eastlands Library as we kick off the second Kids To Code workshop! We are excited to bring up the next generation of tech wizards.”

“The Kids To Code program engages children in science-based experiments using interactive kits that simulate real-world applications while also equipping them with digital literacy skills at an early age,” said Safaricom.

Safaricom aims to train kids within two consecutive weekends, inspiring them to continue learning and pursuing tech in the future.

“Our aim for the program is to train kids within the 2 consecutive weekends, who will be inspired and will go on to continue with the fire to learn and pursue tech,” said Safaricom.

The program is part of Safaricom Women in Technology’s mission to nurture the next generation of creators and innovators in the tech space, advancing women from the classroom to the boardroom.
