Code for Inclusion aims to get like-minded young people - both disabled and non-disabled - working together to:
Design tech that is more inclusive
Design tech that promotes inclusion
Influence coders, user experience designers, and other people in the technology industry to have more inclusive practices
Learn skills and develop confidence around coding and tech.
Being included is a right, not a privilege
Code for Inclusion is part of #ShareOneWorld, KEEN’s nationwide grassroots campaign which promotes inclusion through young people focusing on projects in their own community.
Technology is more important than ever, and right now, too many people are left behind.
Whether it’s easy-to-use video calls, safer online platforms, or increasing internet access, Code for Inclusion will make technology more accessible for everyone.
