Description
Originating from former President Barack Obama’s 2009 call for a “New Beginning” between the U.S. and the Muslim world with a focus on increased engagement in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), ECA’s TechWomen (TW) and TechGirls (TG) programs celebrate their 10-year anniversary with three TechCamps called NextGen TechCamps. These TechCamps will build on pre-existing efforts to engage and empower local tech communities around the world by leveraging the expertise of TW and TG alumnae as participants, trainers and mentors. NextGen TechCamp Jordan will bring together 50 TW and TG alumni from Jordan, Algeria, Egypt, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestinian Territories, and Tunisia. By offering training, skills development, and networking opportunities, this program seeks to empower women entrepreneurs, cultivate their leadership, and fuel innovation in the tech sector.
