Baratang Miya had the odds stacked against her. As a black child growing up in South Africa, she was denied the quality education that every kid deserves.
It was only when Miya got to university that she used a computer for the first time. She soon realised the importance of technical knowledge in the workplace. So, she taught herself how to code.
Miya’s project offers kids at junior and high school level a fair chance at becoming proficient in a range of coding languages. “They can keep on thriving where technology keeps evolving,” Miya says.
