Applications Are Now Open for GirlsGoIT Summer Camp 2025 – Young Women Passionate About IT Are Encouraged to Apply

Are you a young woman passionate about IT and dreaming of building a career in this exciting and opportunity-filled field? If the answer is “yes,” then GirlsGoIT Summer Camp 2025 is for you! This opportunity is open to girls aged 14 to 20. The camp will take place from July 18 to 27, 2025, in Chișinău, in a physical format.

Although Moldova’s IT sector is becoming an increasingly important and profitable part of the economy, its continued growth and ability to attract investments depends on access to qualified labor and the full potential of its population.

The mission of the GirlsGoIT project is to empower and encourage young women to pursue careers in information technology. The project aims to challenge stereotypes and reduce gender disparities in the tech industry by giving girls and young women direct access to digital education and professional training.

Participation is free of charge, and all costs for accommodation, meals, and activities will be covered by the organizers.

Young women interested in applying are encouraged to fill out this form.
The application deadline is June 29, 2025.

During the camp, participants will attend hands-on workshops led by young professionals in the field. Each participant will choose one of six specialized tracks to study:

• UX/UI Design (Figma)

• Dynamic Frontend (JavaScript, VueJS, Firebase)

• Static Frontend (HTML & CSS)

• Game Development (Python, RenPy, Storytelling)

• Data Science (Python, Statistics, Machine Learning)

• Prototyping (3D modeling – Fusion 360 & Arduino)

GirlsGoIT is a national program launched in 2015. Over the years, it has helped build an active community of confident, informed, and skilled young women, ready to become key players in the ICT field.

In a context where women remain underrepresented in technology, initiatives like this play a crucial role in promoting inclusion. According to data published by the National Bureau of Statistics in 2019, only 31% of jobs in Moldova’s ICT sector are held by women, and girls represent only 4.6% of students who choose a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) field. These gaps result in limited access to well-paid jobs and high-potential career paths.

The program is implemented in partnership with the Ministry of Education and Research of the Republic of Moldova, the National Youth Agency, UNICEF, and TEKEDU.
