My project focuses on empowering young Africans with practical AI, Python, and digital skills through hands-on learning, mentorship, and collaborative community activities. The goal is to create accessible learning spaces where students can gain confidence, build real projects, and develop the skills needed to contribute to Africa’s technological growth.
During the Millennium Fellowship, my project successfully launched the ALU PyClub, creating a consistent and supportive learning space where students began learning Python through hands-on sessions. I also expanded my technical capacity by joining the Carnegie Mellon Bridge Program, which strengthened my knowledge and allowed me to teach others more effectively. My goal was to build an AI literacy and tech-learning community on campus, and I achieved this by establishing the PyClub, hosting beginner-friendly sessions, and engaging students who had never coded before.
