The Federal Ministry of Communication, Innovation, and Digital Economy has launched the National Girls in ICT Competition to increase female participation in technology. The initiative provides secondary school girls with a platform to showcase their skills in coding, web development, cybersecurity, and data analytics while addressing gender gaps in the industry.

Participants will develop hands-on ICT skills and gain recognition from industry leaders. They will also access mentorship, workshops, and networking opportunities.

Interested participants must register online and form a team of three with teacher support. Teams must identify a community problem and develop a tech-based solution. Applications close by March 6, 2025.
