The Week Ahead | International Girls in ICT Day 2025
They say the future is digital, but is it inclusive?
On Thursday, the 24th of April, the world will come together to celebrate International Girls in ICT Day 2025 a powerful reminder that girls and women belong at the heart of our digital transformation.
This year’s theme, “Girls in ICT for Inclusive Digital Transformation,” challenges us to rethink the spaces we create, the systems we build, and the doors we open for the next generation of women in tech.
We are talking coding, cybersecurity, data science, innovation and more importantly, access, access to STEM education, to career opportunities, and to tech spaces that empower rather than exclude.
And joining us in this important conversation is someone who knows a thing or two about nurturing future-ready digital talent Jessica Hawkey, Managing Director of RedAcademy, a dynamic learning and placement platform building tech skills for South Africa’s youth.
