Born in Afghanistan, impACT is a global movement for social justice, a more balanced narrative, and system change/stabilization through bottom-up (social) entrepreneurship. We enhance access to networks, resources and knowledge for social entrepreneurs because bottom-up approaches towards system change are crucial to tackling global challenges.
The Technovation Challenge engages teams of high school or middle school girls to dream up, design, code and pitch mobile phone apps. Working with professional mentors, all-girl teams develop a real-world combination of technical and entrepreneurial skills.
