Application
Register your interest for 16–20 November 2026 in Nairobi — girls aged 10–18 in teams of 2–4. Choose a track, pick your build medium, and showcase your prototype at the end of the week.
Her Mindshift equips girls aged 10–18 to identify local SDG-related challenges and build practical tech solutions—apps, websites and games—that address those challenges in their schools and communities.
Each team selects one track and aligns their project to these SDG focus areas.

Orientation day
Pick one participant track aligned to SDGs, then build an app, website, or game with mentor support throughout the week.
Final days
Polish your prototype, pitch to mentors and judges, and celebrate your mindshift with the Her Mindshift community.
Within your track, choose how you want to build — an app, a website, or a game.
Build a mobile experience that solves a problem you see every day — from study buddies to safety tools to local health.
Design a web platform that gives a community a voice — connect learners, mentors, makers, or makers-to-be.
Build a game in Scratch, JavaScript, or Python. Make it teach, persuade, or build empathy around climate, equality, or sustainable living.
