Girls from several schools from across the country are given the opportunity to explore the various fields related to Information and Communication Technology (ICT). This is done by the MoPT in collaboration with the National Data Management Authority (NDMA) as part of the MoPT’s mandate to bolster ICT learning in Guyana. This is done through initiatives such as Girls Coding Camps and the Guyanese Girls in ICT programmes. The other programme is the development of ICT Tech labs. This programme was developed by Geotech Vision, and sees fifty-five (55) girls from eleven (11) schools and the University of Guyana engaged in web development activities. In addition, the SheLeadsIt organisation and the NDMA are working to empower women in Guyana through training and education. The organisation has reached over 800 girls in Guyana and across the Caribbean. The Ministry of Education also introduced ROBOTICS Programmes which are now mainstreamed in school and allow or enable girls to code using technology. Guyana participated internationally with the STEM ROBOTIC Competition in 2017 and 2018 and will continue to participate in 2019.
