01 — Project Overview

Code! Empower! Include! Transform!

This is not just a coding course. It is a social intervention.

ENCODE-IT is a 15-month Erasmus+ KA210-ADU transnational project designed to dismantle the barriers keeping low-skilled adult women out of the digital economy.

Targeting unemployed women, housewives, refugees, migrants, and survivors of violence, we provide accessible Python training to open pathways into IT support, web development, and data entry roles.
