Girls4Tech : encouraging girls to shine in Science and Technology

Mastercard has launched its Girls4Tech program in Turkey! The goal? To help girls discover STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) in a fun and hands-on way. The first session took place in Istanbul with girls from Darüşşafaka. Soon, 100 children will benefit from this training!

STEM fields are exciting and full of future career possibilities, yet few girls choose them. According to a Mastercard study, many girls lose interest in STEM between ages 9 and 13. Girls4Tech aims to change this by offering activities in coding, cybersecurity, data science, and artificial intelligence!

Inspiring Mentors
Mastercard employees lead these workshops, showing girls they can succeed in these careers. Esin Ünal Yılmaz, Vice President at Mastercard, says: « We want to help girls discover technology and prepare for their future. »

A Global Program
Since 2014, Girls4Tech has already reached 7 million girls in 64 countries. With its arrival in Turkey, even more children will get the chance to explore the fascinating world of STEM and dream big!
