The Nigerian Geek Girls Collaborative Camp is a one-week long ICT mentoring camp to bring together Nigerian Secondary School girls, female undergraduates and female teachers, with the main objective of mentoring and improving their involvement in Information and Communication Technology, both as a profession and as a problem solving tool in their various professions. It is hoped that the camp will boost the participants’ confidence and encourage them to participate in Information Technology. This will be done by enabling them to create personal ICT projects after undergoing hands-on ICT training. The event is completely free to participants courtesy of generous support from our partners and sponsors
