Empowering women in technology through education, mentorship, and community support. Join us in bridging the gender gap in tech.
About Swahili Tech Women
Swahili Tech Women (STW) is an initiative dedicated to increasing the participation and success of women in technology fields across East Africa. Through education, mentorship, networking, and advocacy, we aim to bridge the gender gap in tech and empower women to pursue and thrive in STEM careers.
Our Mission
To create an inclusive tech ecosystem where women have equal opportunities to learn, work, and lead in technology fields.
Our Vision
A world where women are equally represented and valued in technology, contributing their unique perspectives to innovation and problem-solving.
Our Impact
Since our founding, we've trained over 500 women in various tech skills, mentored 200+ women, and helped 100+ secure jobs in the tech industry.
Why Women in Tech?
Despite making up half the population, women remain significantly underrepresented in technology fields. This gender gap not only limits opportunities for women but also deprives the tech industry of diverse perspectives and talent.
By supporting women in tech, we're working toward a more inclusive, innovative, and equitable future for everyone.
