TOGETHER WE ARE CODING A NEW STORY

By Teresa Velez | Lider de Marketing

Hoy la tecnología marca el ritmo de nuestras vidas. El 89% de lo que hacemos en internet tiene que ver con una solución web, pero solo el 6% han sido creadas por mujeres. En américa latina las mujeres que trabajan en STEM representan tan solo el 10.36%. 

Cambiar esta realidad es posible y hoy desde MAKAIA estamos codificando una nueva historia. En nuestro bootcamp de código y programación hemos entrenado como desarrolladoras web a 134 mujer de 11 departamentos y 37 ciudades de Colombia. De los grupos activos a la fecha el 41% de las participantes son mujeres.

Desarrollamos capacidades y promovemos talento tecnológico diverso e inclusivo, con el potencial de transformar realidades a través de soluciones innovadoras, inspirando a más niñas, jóvenes y mujeres a ser parte de esta revolución, a seguir sus sueños y alcanzar su máximo potencial.

Changing this reality is possible and today at MAKAIA we are codifying a new story. In our code and programming bootcamp we have trained 134 women from 11 departments and 37 cities in Colombia as web developers. Of the active groups to date, 41% of the participants are women.

We develop capacities and promote diverse and inclusive technological talent, with the potential to transform realities through innovative solutions, inspiring more girls, young people and women to be part of this revolution, to follow their dreams and reach their full potential.
