Empowering Young Muslim Women in Digital Innovation!
A huge congratulations to the incredible Muslim girls from The Friendship Café who have successfully completed the DiversITy-talent program!
These young women worked tirelessly to develop digital solutions that tackle mental health challenges faced by Muslim teenage girls due to the pressures of social media. Their project, Unfiltered Minds, was a thoughtful and impactful initiative designed to foster positive online experiences and promote well-being.
Throughout the program, they gained a wealth of digital and business skills, including:
✔ Design Thinking
✔ Digital Marketing
✔ UI/UX Design
✔ Cybersecurity Awareness
✔ Data Analytics
✔ Presentation & Public Speaking
✔ Problem-Solving & Innovation
Their creativity, dedication, and teamwork were inspiring, and we couldn’t be prouder of their achievements! Seeing them grow in confidence and capability is exactly why DiversITy-talent exists.
A special thank you to The Friendship Café for partnering with us and creating a safe, empowering space for these young women to learn and innovate.
We are also incredibly grateful to Coforge for their sponsorship and support in making this program possible. Your commitment to investing in diverse talent is truly making a difference!
Receiving such a heartfelt thank-you card from the girls was truly special. Their words of gratitude remind us why investing in the next generation matters so much.
Let’s continue breaking barriers, supporting diverse talent, and ensuring more young people—regardless of background—have the skills and opportunities to thrive in business and technology!
