GoGirls ICT Initiative is a Juba, South Sudan-based non-profit initiative founded by a group of dedicated young women in the fields of Computer Science, Information Systems, ICT4D Innovation, hacktivism, and peace-building. GoGirls ICT’s focus is on mentorship in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) related topics leveraging more on Open Source resources to create an Open Culture in South Sudan. Founded in 2015, the Organization was finally registered as an independent Non-Governmental Organization in 2019. The organization is part of the Global Innovation Gathering and Access to Skills and Knowledge network #ASKnet, while its founders have been featured on Eskills4girls’ The Storytellers: Experiences around the Globe.

#ASKnet is a capacity-building and hub-development program that links together five community-based, youth-led innovation hubs in South Sudan and Uganda. #ASKnet is working towards building a sustainable network of trainers who, in turn, empower others in their communities with the skills and knowledge needed to address specific challenges in their communities. The #ASKnet community also works to transform cultural patterns that fuel conflict and inequality. #ASKnet is a capacity-building and hub-development program that links together five community-based, youth-led innovation hubs in South Sudan and Uganda. #ASKnet is working towards building a sustainable network of trainers who, in turn, empower others in their communities with the skills and knowledge needed to address specific challenges in their communities.
