Meklit's Story I first become interested in coding while watching a tech show that is targeted towards Ethiopians, via our local tv channel. It inspired me to dig deep and teach myself some of the basics. I had the chance to get in touch with some women that were learning computer science and knew how to code, hearing from them, what really made them interested in turn made me become a coding enthusiast.

🤹‍♀️ Meklit's Hobbies

I love listening to songs, especially Ethiopian cultural songs. Whenever I'm doing some work or just simply walking, I'll listen to songs. I try to immerse myself in the melodies, gradually connecting with the lyrics. Other things I do for fun include going to a nearby coffee shop and drink coffee while streaming my favorite show.

SheCodes Foundation Mission

Women currently hold 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less money than men. In most developing countries, more than 65% of women don't have bank accounts and cannot afford to invest in their education. Female refugees also don’t have many opportunities to invest in their education and improve their career horizon - they often work in unskilled, undervalued, and low-paid informal sectors.

SheCodes is here to help provide women in developing countries and women who are refugees with the opportunity to learn how to code for free. SheCodes offers a solid introduction to product development, product design and product management.
