In a bold step to bridge the gender gap in Africa’s tech ecosystem, She Code Africa (a nonprofit dedicated to empowering young African women in tech) is set to launch a new mentorship program with support from the HP Digital Equity Accelerator – a global initiative by HP that supports nonprofits working to close the digital divide for marginalized and underserved communities.
The mentorship program will run in five cycles and feature four key tracks:
- Data Analysis
- Frontend Development
- UI/UX Design
- Product Management
Open to both newcomers and women already working in tech, the program promises personalised mentorship, practical guidance, and community support to help participants thrive in their chosen career paths.
Applications open soon, and interested participants are encouraged to follow She Code Africa on social media for announcements.
“Tag a friend who should apply—this could be the start of something big,” the organization said in a post announcing the launch.
Through funding, mentorship, and access to HP technology, the HP Digital Equity Accelerator helps organisations scale innovative solutions that promote digital literacy, inclusion, and economic opportunity.
She Code Africa has built a reputation for providing access to training, mentorship, and career development opportunities across the continent. This new initiative, backed by HP’s global digital inclusion program, reinforces both organisations’ shared mission of creating a more inclusive and equitable tech industry.
