In this episode of Incredible #WomenInTechPK, meet Urooj Fatima and read about her inspiring journey in the tech ecosystem! Featuring her in this series is an absolute moment of joy and pride for us as she graduated from CodeGirls by ConsulNet Corporation. "In today’s world, hustle culture is glorified to a dangerous extent, where sacrificing mental peace and personal life for career success is often applauded. While I value hard work and dedication, I firmly believe they should never come at the cost of mental health. I believe that when you are truly at peace from the inside, it naturally translates into success and growth on the outside." Read more: https://lnkd.in/d8E3KqmE

CodeGirls Skardu Cohort 4 Phase 1 – Viva Happened on 14th Dec! 😰 Skardu’s #winter is no joke! 🥶 The freezing temperatures push everyone to their limits, but the determination of our #CodeGirls is truly unmatched.

Either way, these girls gave it their all, with hard work at its peak! A special shoutout to our dedicated #Trainers, whose unwavering support fuels this journey. Together, we conquer challenges and turn them into victories—staying true to our mission of empowering women through tech. 💪✨ #ConsulNetCorporation #CodeGirlsSkardu Shamim Rajani Faiza Yousuf Hasnain Walji.

CaterpillHERs had the honor of participating in the EmpowerHer Digital Tech Summit 2024, organized by UN Women Pakistan and KOICA Pakistan. The event was a celebration of innovation and progress, bringing together incredible individuals working to bridge the digital gender divide and empower women in STEM and IT. At the summit, our program team set up a booth where we had the chance to connect with students from Multan, Lahore, Peshawar, Mardan, and Swabi. We introduced them to the programs we offer at CaterpillHERs, discussed how we’re advancing opportunities for women in tech, and engaged with the next generation of changemakers. It was inspiring to see so much enthusiasm and talent among these young women. Our Co-founder, Faiza Yousuf, also joined a panel discussion with Nadia Patel Gangjee and Erum Ahsan Ali, moderated by Fasieh Mehta. The conversation explored ways to enhance women’s participation in STEM and IT, what is being done by organisations serving on ground, and discussed ideas for building a more inclusive tech ecosystem. A huge thank you to Kapil Dev for inviting us to this impactful event and to Nadia Patel of FEMPROW for nominating us. Special thanks to the honorable guests—Mr. Jamshed M. Kazi (UN Country Representative), Ms. Jacqui Ketunuti (UN Deputy Country Representative), and Mr. Je Ho Yeon (KOICA Country Director)—for their continued support in championing women’s empowerment. It’s always incredible to see the tech community come together for a cause as important as this. Events like these remind us of the power of collaboration in creating meaningful change. #EmpowerHer2024 #CaterpillHERs #WomenInTech #DigitalGenderDivide #UNWomenPakistan #KOICAPakistan
