After 3 years, Uganda students now want to learn how to code
In 2019, Kids on Computers partnered with the Mwebaza Foundation to set up three computer labs throughout Uganda. These three labs consist of 15 Raspberry Pi 3 workstations with free, open-source software.
In the time since having the labs, the students and teachers have not only integrated the technology into every area of their learning but have now expressed a desire to learn to code with Python.
This is why we do this, to break the digital divide and help these students pursue higher education and employment.
To learn more about Kids on Computers visit: kidsoncomputers.org and to see more about our partners the Mwebaza Foundation visit: mwebaza.org
Throughout the global pandemic, our team has been working harder than ever to bring computers to disadvantaged kids.
