STEM & ICT Skills for Girls of Coastal Area of Bangladesh
Project Background
SISGCA stands for the STEM & ICT Skills for the Girls of Coastal Area, a two-year long project aiming to reduce the digital gap among the secondary school girls (grade 6 to 8) of three coastal areas of Bangladesh by providing easy access to smart devices and bring positive change among girls and community people regarding STEM education and ICT career for girls, by creating awareness.
This project is being implemented in three coastal upazilas- Tala, Shatkhira, Rampal, Bagerhat & Rupsha, Khulna, as girls living in the coastal areas are likely to be deprived of quality education and digital knowledge. Two schools in each area are used as the hub of these activities and activities are conducting centering these 6 hubs.
SISGCA is funded by The Malala Fund and in association with Bangladesh Open Source Network (BdOSN), Bangladesh Freedom Foundation is implementing this project.
