The Digital Divide in Numbers
Over 60% of young Nigerians lack access to a computer or reliable internet.
Only 15% of students receive formal digital skills training in school.
Unemployment among Nigerian youth stands at over 30%, partly due to lack of digital literacy.
Cyber risks are rising, yet many young people lack digital safety education.
Breaking Barriers,
Building Futures
In today's digital world, access to technology and digital skills is no longer a luxury—it's a necessity. Yet, millions of young people in marginalized communities across Nigeria lack the tools, training, and opportunities needed to succeed in the digital economy. At Teens Can Code, we are on a mission to change that.
Our Mission
We are dedicated to advancing digital inclusion for young people in underserved communities by providing them with the knowledge, skills, and resources needed to thrive in a technology-driven world.
The Problem We Are Solving
Many Nigerian youth face systemic barriers to digital participation, including:
Limited access to computers, internet, and digital tools
Lack of structured digital skills training
Gaps in essential soft skills and financial literacy
Exposure to online risks with little or no digital safety education
Without these critical resources, young people struggle to secure quality jobs, pursue entrepreneurship, or navigate digital spaces safely, further widening the digital divide.
How We Make a
Difference
Through our innovative programs, we equip young people with:
Hands-on coding and technology training
Soft skills and financial empowerment resources
Digital literacy and online safety education
Mentorship and career development opportunities
By bridging the gap, we empower youth to shape their future and contribute meaningfully to Nigeria’s digital economy.

Let's work together to create a world where no young person is left behind in the digital revolution.
We believe in a future where every young person, regardless of location, gender, or background, has equitable access to digital education and opportunities. Whether you're a student, parent, educator, or potential partner, there are many ways to get involved.
