Siham 's Story My interest in coding began when I noticed how technology was increasingly influencing almost every field, including law, which is my primary focus. As a law student, I started realizing that legal professionals are using tech tools to improve efficiency and accessibility. The idea of merging law with technology intrigued me, and I began exploring how coding could be a valuable skill in my career. I was particularly drawn to the idea of using coding to create solutions that could make legal processes more accessible and efficient for people. Additionally, I've always had an interest in problem-solving and critical thinking. Coding offers an opportunity to break down complex problems and build solutions from scratch, which aligns with my personal strengths. I was also inspired by how coding empowers individuals to bring their ideas to life through technology, whether by developing websites, apps, or systems that solve real-world problems. To deepen my understanding, I started researching coding boot camps, and SheCodes stood out to me because of its supportive, beginner-friendly approach. I saw it as an ideal place to start my journey into coding, not only for my own personal growth but also to open up new opportunities for combining my passion for law with technology.

The SheCodes Foundation Mission

Women hold only 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less than men. In many developing countries, over 65% of women lack bank accounts, making it difficult to invest in their education.

The SheCodes Foundation is changing that. We provide women in developing countries with free coding education, equipping them with the skills to build a better future. In partnership with SheCodes, we offer training in product development, design, and management, empowering women to thrive in the tech industry.
