On this 15th anniversary of #GirlsInICT Day, we also want to build on the momentum of our recent #PyladiesDRC Cohort 3, held from Nov 20 to 21, 2025, encouraging young girls to rethink their own Digital Inclusion through Co-creation and Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS).

Inspired by António Guterres’ call — ‘Stand with science. Stand for justice. Stand for future generations.’ — We crafted our own: ‘Stand with Open Source. Stand for women’s digital inclusion. Stand for future generations.’ It perfectly captures the spirit of #PyLadiesDRC. 💻✨

And what if Open Source were a feminist strategy? 🤔 It’s not just about #technology — and this year’s edition proved it. #PyLadiesDRC is becoming a lab of possibilities, where #hardware, #free #software, and #creativity converge to help women innovate and lead.

Rethinking Women’s Digital Inclusion through Co-creation and Free/Libre Open Source Technologies (FLOSS) bingwa-civic.tech/en/rethink… This year’s #PyLadiesDRC edition wasn’t just a training — it was a transformation, with women defining what their digital inclusion should look like!

Ce fut un plaisir de participer au #PyLadiesDRC Edition 2025, organisée par @BingwaCivicTech Au programme : Python (variables, conditions, modules), visualisation avec Matplotlib, accès au hardware via gpiozero et un lab de co-création sur l’inclusion numérique des femmes. #NTIC

Day 2 of #PyLadiesDRC, Co-Creation Edition 2025, was packed with learning, experimentation, and creativity as participants continued their journey in Free/Libre Open Source Technologies. 🎥 Full recap in the video below ⬇️

As we relaunch our #PyLadiesDRC cohort, we’re not just introducing young women to Python; we’re now making them co-designers of the Digital Inclusion program we’ve built over the past 3 years using Free/Libre Open Source Technologies. 2024 Impact Report 🔗 nextcloud.bingwa-civic.tech/…

Is it a good idea to switch to #Hardware now that everyone thinks they can code with AI? 🙃🥱 #PyladiesDRC is back, but this time in Cocreation mode... We are rethinking young women's digital Inclusion through Free/Libre Open Source Technologies in #Goma bingwa-civic.tech/en/event/p…
