Digital exclusion is the new face of gender apartheid. For too long, the digital world has built walls instead of bridges. It has left our mothers, sisters, and daughters on the wrong side of opportunity.
When a woman is locked out of the digital world, her children inherit poverty. This is the stark truth of our age. It is an inheritance of limitation, of missed potential, of voices silenced before they can even speak.
We’re changing that

With a background in Computer Science, I completed my B.Sc. at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, and pursued postgraduate studies at the University of Edinburgh, earning M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees. I joined Public Health Scotland as an Information Analyst. Enrolling in the PDA in Data Science program in 2022, I expanded my skills and knowledge, which significantly contributed to my promotion to Senior Information Analyst. I highly recommend the PDA in Data Science course for its comprehensive training, diverse tutors, and focus on technical and soft skills. Thank you, Datakirk, for this valuable opportunity.
