Mission Statement

Diversicode empowers disabled children globally with coding and tech skills, fostering a future where their perspectives drive innovation. We break down barriers, offering training and support to enable them as tech leaders and creators. We believe tech should reflect all experiences and strive to integrate the voices of disabled children into the digital landscape. Join us in building an inclusive tech future where everyone can learn, create, and code. Together, we create a more equitable and innovative future. Join us in our journey in changing the coding indsutry forever!

Description

DiversiCode is a student-led nonprofit breaking down barriers in tech education for children with disabilities. We provide free, adaptive coding classes designed to meet each learner where they are-because talent doesn’t follow a single mold, and neither should opportunity. We recently have had a successful 10 week partnership with the Saamarthya foundation India, where we introduced their students to block-based coding. At the moment we are currently developing their designing skills through canva. We plan to partner with many future organisations such as Nellore.
