Django Girls

If you are a woman and want to learn how to make websites, we have good news for you: we are holding a one-day workshop for beginners!

It will take place on 11, JUNE, 2022 at KITHUB in BUJUMBURA-BURUNDI.

We believe the IT industry will greatly benefit from bringing more women into technology. We want to give you an opportunity to learn how to program and become one of us – women programmers!

Workshops are free of charge. You can apply for the workshop only until 04, JUNE, 2022!

Apply for the workshop!

If you are a woman, know English or French and have a laptop, you can apply for our event! You don't need to know any technical stuff – our workshop is for people who are new to programming.

As a workshop attendee you will:

  • attend a one-day Django workshop during which you will create your first website
  • be fed by us: during our event, food is provided

We have a limited space, so make sure to fill out the form very carefully!

Applications are now open!

Application process closes on June 4th and you'll be informed about acceptance or rejection by June 8th (or sooner)!

APPLY NOW !

Do I need to know anything about websites or programming?

No! Workshops are for beginners. You don’t need to know anything about it. However, if you have a little bit of technical knowledge (i.e. you know what HTML or CSS are) you still can apply!

I am not living in Burundi, can I attend?

Of course! Workshops will be in English, so if you have no troubles with speaking and understanding English - you should apply. We are willing to help you!

Should I bring my own laptop?

Yes. We have no hardware, so we expect you to bring your computer with you. It is also important for us that you will take home everything you’ll write and create during workshops.

Do I need to have something installed on my laptop?

It would be helpful to have Django installed before workshops, but wouldn't expect you to install anything on your own.We will make sure that one of our coaches will help you out with this task.

Be a Mentor!

We would be delighted if you would like to join us as a mentor! Contact us if you're interested ❤️
