A new format arrives for the traditional press conference presenting the Coding Girls Programme. This year, schools will explain how young women are changing the world. Interviews will reveal the faces that are leading this “gentle revolution” without any need for special “pink” quotas. [see news: Coding Girls: Edition 7]. The appointment is today at 11:00 am on the GoToWebinar Platform or on social media to follow the #CodinGirls event.
Schools will be able to follow the event live on Facebook streamed by the United States Diplomatic Mission to Italy that has traditionally hosted the press conference.
