Its mission is to encourage girls and women of all age to enter the digital workforce. By supporting female entrepreneurs, it builds a new, gender-balanced generation of digital leaders and reduces the gender gap in the digital sector. It has several objectives: Objective 1: To promote digital skills for women while challenging stereotypes Action: EveryGirl Caravan: a series of meetings and events supported by the IT industry to promote local role models in the IT sector and build local communities that support girls and women in tech. These are opportunities to inspire, train and connect the digital women leaders of tomorrow. Objective 2: To grow the IT industry and IT workforce Action: Working with the EveryGirl Alliance (national multi-stakeholder coalition of actors, committed to closing the digital gender gap) to organise coding events, hackathons, trainings and professional reconversion programmes. These provide hands-on experience, skills, and know-how required to succeed in digital and connects members. Objective 3: To build up Romania’s leverage in the EU Action: exporting sustainable and replicable good practices on closing the gender gap in the digital sector. COST: Until now, the financial model was private funding. 200k€ if the launch investment required in 1 city (Bucharest) and 500k€ to expand to 2 other cities. To expand into other cities, there would be a need for a larger team and investments in logistics, promotion and advertising.
