Impact

It started with 50 girls in Makurdi.

Our very first workshop brought 50 secondary school girls in Makurdi face-to-face with Artificial Intelligence, digital literacy, and STEM. Every stat below is one of them — and every future cohort begins with this classroom.

Why we exist

The gender gap we're here to close.

Girls match boys in early science ability — yet the numbers thin out at every step. Women earn just 35% of STEM degrees worldwide, hold 28% of STEM jobs, and fill only 22% of AI roles. In Nigeria, fewer than 1 in 4 STEM graduates is a woman.

SheLearns AI exists to bridge that gender gap — meeting girls early, in secondary school, and educating them with practical AI and STEM skills, mentorship, and role models, so they choose a STEM career path — and stay on it.

28% — women's share of the global STEM workforce (WEF, 2024)
22% — women's share of professional AI roles worldwide
Fewer than 1 in 4 — women among Nigeria's STEM graduates (UNESCO)

Women's share shrinks at every step of the ladder — from graduation to the AI frontier.
