Here are some of the ways Vodacom is empowering women.
Vodacom is taking part in a Vodafone global initiative aimed at providing teenage girls across 26 countries with coding training. The Vodacom Code Like a Girl programme started in Gauteng, reaching 20 young girls from Tembisa schools who were taught how to code. Now Vodacom in the KwaZulu Natal region has offered 37 school-going female learners from various districts, including Umlazi, Wentworth, Phoenix and Chatsworth, an opportunity to learn how to code during this winter school holidays, at its headquarters in Ridgeside, Umhlanga.
