About Miss Africa Digital Competition
The Miss.Africa Digital Program is a gender-focused initiative aimed primarily at female youth audiences in Africa. Its goal is to increase women’s involvement in early technology use and adoption. This is so that digital self-awareness and empowerment can improve, as well as bridge the economic divide through employment or entrepreneurship.
They educate women about the technology industry through mentorship programs. Also through outreach enhancement initiatives, leadership engagement opportunities, and technology-centred learning to develop an all-around woman for the African market. The Miss.Africa program is based in Nairobi, but it is expanding by introducing more African women to technology.
