Summary of the Event :

In prelude of the Girls in ICT Day, Plan International Mali, with support from NNO, organized a training session for young girls in mobile application development (compatible with Android). Initially planned for 20 girls working in the field of ICT, 27 girls finally received the training. The session took place in the premises of Information and Communication Technologies Agency (AGETIC) and lasted from 16 to 19 April 2018 under the facilitation of Women Techmakers network.

The main objective was to raise girls awareness on ICT and teach them basic concepts in mobile application development cycle and also to publish information regarding the initiative in order to inspire others.

The certificate delivery ceremony took place on April 30, 2018 in the meeting room of Plan International Mali under the chair of the Plan Country Director and in the presence of CMT members and representatives of Women Techmakers  network.

In order for these learners to achieve complete autonomy in mobile applications development, we recommend other sessions that will allow us to address the most advanced concepts in mobile application development.

It will be also interesting to develop a strategy for individual monitoring of the progression of beneficiaries while providing them with the necessary support.

We, Women Techmakers network have the human resources qualified and infrastructure to support Plan International Mali through training activities implementation.
