The project titled "Coding for Girls" was designed for girls who have an interest in IT and Computer Science at the school and college levels.

It aims to enhance IT skills in non-urban areas.

Initially, the training will be made available in Araihazar Upazila of Narayanganj and Titas Upazila of Cumilla.

Along with local high schools, local IT training institutes will also be involved in this activity.

The courses that will be covered during the training sessions include Basic Computer Training, Web Development, Graphics Designing, and Introduction to Python.
