Cairo, April 25, 2024, The Arab Women Organization has recently unveiled an exciting opportunity for girls with a passion for technology and innovation. The Arab Girl and Technology Award for 2024 is now accepting applications, with a mission to inspire and empower young girls to explore the vast realms of information technology (IT) and communications.
This prestigious award aims to nurture and enhance the creativity and innovation skills of girls, encouraging them to develop effective solutions that address pressing societal issues. Through a carefully crafted statement released on Wednesday, the organization highlighted the significance of this initiative in fostering a new generation of tech-savvy female leaders.
The award will be presented across two distinct categories, each designed to showcase the diverse talents and capabilities of young girls in Arab communities. The first category focuses on the development and programming of technological projects tailored to women's issues, utilizing state-of-the-art software and innovative technological methodologies.
Meanwhile, the second category centers around digital awareness campaigns and the creation of technological initiatives using social media platforms. This category aims to inspire girls to pursue studies and careers in scientific and technological fields, promoting digital literacy and engagement.
Eligible applicants for the award include girls from Arab member countries of the organization, aged between 12 and 24 years. The application process, open until September 30, invites girls to submit their innovative projects either individually or as part of a team. Notably, submitted works must demonstrate innovation and should not have previously received awards.
