Partnership with the Zawadi Africa Education Fund

Posted on 08:15 by Unknown
En Français

We are excited to announce a new partnership with the Zawadi Africa Education Fund. Zawadi Africa is a non-profit organization that provides educational opportunities to African women from rural and disadvantaged backgrounds. We have joined efforts to encourage more African women to pursue degrees and careers in computer science and technology.

This collaboration will grant five Kenyan women full scholarships to complete degrees in computer science, computer engineering and/or ICT. With Zawadi's help and support, the students will be applying to universities this summer, and we will select the 5 who will become the Google Zawadi Scholars. These students will be pursuing studies at top universities in Kenya and South Africa, and they'll each have the support of a Google engineering mentor. We always encourage our engineers to get involved with opportunities likes this; they are eager to be involved and build connections with the students.

Stay tuned at the end of the summer to find out who the five Google Zawadi Scholars are. For more information, please visit our student website and learn about Google Zawadi Africa Scholarships.

Partenariat avec Zawadi Africa Education Fund

Nous sommes heureux de vous annoncer un nouveau partenariat avec Zawadi Africa Education Fund. Zawadi Africa, ONG à but non lucratif, a pour vocation de donner accès aux études supérieures à des femmes africaines provenant de milieux défavorisés et ruraux. Nous avons joint nos efforts afin d'encourager les femmes africaines à poursuivre des études supérieures dans l'informatique et les technologies de l'information.


Cette collaboration se traduira par l'attribution de cinq bourses à des étudiantes kenyanes pour des études en informatique et/ou en technologies de l'information. Avec l'aide et le soutien de Zawadi, les étudiantes postuleront aux universités cet été, et nous choisirons cinq d'entre elles pour des bourses Google-Zawadi. Ces étudiantes iront poursuivre leurs études supérieures dans les meilleures universités du Kenya et d'Afrique du Sud, et bénéficieront de l'accompagnement d'un ingénieur de Google. Nous encourageons toujours nos ingénieurs à s'impliquer dans des opportunités comme celles-ci et avons reçu un fort intérêt en ce sens de leur part.


Restez à l'écoute pour connaître les cinq bénéficiaires d'une bourse Google-Zawadi, qui seront annoncées à la fin de l'été. Pour plus d'informations, vous pouvez visiter notre site à destination des étudiants et en apprendre plus sur les bourses Google Zawadi Africa.
