Girls Into Coding April 2022 Newsletter!

Dependence on oil & gas is killing the planet. Renewable & sustainable energy are the answer to saving it. Our children understand this better than us. In our GIC article this month we discuss Renewable Energy & How Young People Can Lead the Way.
Also included in this newsletter, are our upcoming VIRTUAL & IN-PERSON events in May, a flashback on our successful in-person event that took place on April 10th, a behind the scenes of Avye's IoT air quality project, the Liverpool MakeFest, and Illana Raia's new book, "the Epic Mentor Guide"!

We hope you enjoy reading our newsletter and we welcome you to connect with us on social media to stay updated. If you would like to receive our next edition straight to your inbox, visit us at Girls Into Coding and subscribe.

FLASHBACK AT OUR IN-PERSON GIC EVENT - APRIL 10TH, 2022 -

We had a great in-person Girls Into Coding CIC event on Sunday, April 10th. So proud of the girls and what we achieved together! It was very nice to be back at the Microsoft Reactor for the first time in 2 years!

Our dedicated mentors - Avye (founder of GIC), Imharia, Ben, Mikel, Llewelyn & Graham delivered challenging & fun workshops in robotics, physical computing, 3D printing & VR.
The girls listened to inspiring talks from our guest speakers Justina Blair and Massi Mapani.
Justina talked about being successful through choice, not destiny. Massi's keynote was about Community Computing, Technology, and your space.
They both answered many questions from the girls!

We thank Angular London MeetUp & The Microsoft Reactor London Team for supporting our ongoing mission to get more girls into tech!

- AIR QUALITY PAVILION -

Take a look behind the scenes as Avye's Pop-Up Particle Pavilion is completed. See how it reacts to and improves its own internal air quality. All on the DesignSpark platform! For now, a little teaser!
