African Centre for Women, Information, and Communications Technology ACWICT promotes women's and youth's access to and knowledge of ICT for sustainable development.

We work to address the challenges faced by high potential but disadvantaged women and youth on transition point from primary school/high school/vocational and/or tertiary education to improve their education, employment, health and leadership opportunities. This is achieved through equipping them with technical skills (IT and vocational skills), coding skills, online work skills, life skills, entr

epreneurship and financial literacy coupled with job placement support. Every year we reach over 25,000 women and youth, and impact on over 250,000 of their significant others annually.
