“Before joining the AI and robotics program, I thought technology was only for people in the city. Now I am building my own mobile app to help farmers in my village track crop diseases. NGTIU showed me that I belong in tech.”

“My parents had already accepted a bride price for me when I was fifteen. The mentors at NGTIU spoke with my family and helped me stay in school. I am now in my second year of university studying law so I can protect other girls like me.”

“Through Pads4Climate I learned to make reusable sanitary pads from local materials. I now train other girls in my community and we sell the extra pads to fund tree-planting projects. One program changed everything for us.”

“I fled South Sudan with nothing. NGTIU's WISC Nora program gave me a safe space, digital skills training, and a community. For the first time since leaving home I felt like I had a future worth building. I am now a peer mentor for newly arrived refugee girls.”

“After surviving gender-based violence I thought my voice did not matter. NGTIU's GBV program helped me heal and then trained me to use technology to document and report cases in my community. I have since helped twelve other survivors access justice.”

“My family could not afford my school fees after my father passed away. The NGTIU education sponsorship kept me in school through my O-levels and A-levels. I just received my acceptance letter to study computer science. I will come back and build the next generation of girls in tech.”
