What is it about ?

The Prologin association organises free training sessions to introduce middle and high school girls to programming. These training sessions deal with different IT topics such as web development, robotics, microcontrollers, etc. Participants will perform hands-on tasks to get a strong coding basis.

The main goal is to promote diversity within the IT world as, according to the INSEE, National Institute of Economics and Statistics Studies, in 2019, among engineers, only 18% were women.
