At SheRises Foundation, we believe that digital empowerment is a gateway to new opportunities, especially for women facing barriers to education and employment. As a proud partner in the Empowering Migrant Women: Bridging Digital Skills and Career Opportunities project, we are committed to breaking barriers and fostering inclusion in the tech industry.
This initiative is more than just a training program—it is a movement designed to equip young migrant women with the skills, knowledge, and support system they need to succeed in today’s digital world.
How Digital Skills Open Doors for Women
Women, particularly migrants, remain underrepresented in the technology sector. Studies show that:
- Only 20% of IT professionals in the EU are women, despite women making up 51% of the population.
- Women-led startups receive only 2% of global venture capital funding, limiting their business growth.
- Digital skills are becoming a necessity, yet many women still lack access to proper training and mentorship.
Why This Matters
Investing in women’s digital education is not just about equal opportunities—it’s about creating a stronger, more inclusive economy. When women gain access to digital tools and education, they:
- Increase their chances of financial independence.
- Boost innovation and creativity in STEM industries.
- Contribute to a more diverse and balanced workforce.
Through the SheRises Foundation, we are ensuring that women are not left behind in the digital revolution.
This is just the beginning. If you believe in bridging the gender gap in digital careers, join us!
