Karina's Story One year ago. Previously I thought that information technologies it is something isn't for me (or for ladies at all). It seemed difficult to understand and learn. Now I know that it was a stereotypical thinking and I just wasn't feel self-confident enough. Last year I joined Legion_361 - ukrainian youth community about technologies (Unfortunately, they stopped their work because of the war). I felt involved, like I'm a part of it. It was interesting to listen lessons of speakers from different areas - metaverse, cyber security, space exploration, digital art and etc. And almost all of these speakers offered jobs in their companies to programmers and other IT specialists. Also, I met friends programmers. One of them asked me 'Why don't you want to try coding? And I thought 'Really..Why?'. When I was in highschool I was one of the best pupils in learning computer science in our group. But it was many years ago, we were writing simple programs on Pascal.:)

🙋‍♀️ Karina's Motivation

As millions of other ukrainians I left my country because of war and had to start life from zero. I applied for a job in cleaning service already but also searching for study opportunities. Getting an ability of self-development, self-realization in a career it is what always was a very important to me. SheCodes courses probably will help me to keep busy, concentrate attention on study and not keep worrying so much about the situation in my country. Probably, it will help me to find a better job.

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.
