JA tehno gospođica

OKTOBER 1st, 2021 | LEJLA BAŠIĆ

Project “JA tehno gospođica” is intended for young girls aged 18 to 30 with the goal of development and improvement of their digital literacy. This includes the abilities of using information and communication technologies for finding, evaluating, creating and communicating information, requiring both cognitive and technical skills. Even though they represent a generation that grew up with the digital technoligies, a large number of young women do not have the basic skillset of working with computers, smartphones, sensors and other hardware devices.

General project goal

The general goal of the projects is strengthening young women through their education within workshops of digital literacy. The ultimative vision of the Association of Young Women "GirlTHing" is defined as "Female students graduate from their IT faculties as capable and strong individuals with the clear vision of their career." We can see that the vision of our association is in overlap with the general goal of this project, because the development of digital literacy is surely the number one step in this direction. In addition to this project, we include all young women, not only the students of technical faculties, because we believe that it is necessary for all young women to be digitally literative regardless of their profession.

Workshops

We plan to organise 10 workshops for digital literacy development. Total number of participants per workshop is 10, and the trainers of the workshops are members of Association "GirlTHing".
