Project description
Teaching Refugees to Code: Project Integration offers free computer programming courses to refugees in the Geneva area. In light of the increasing digitalization of our world, being able to code is becoming a highly desirable and transferable skill. Thus, the aim of these classes is to help find our students a job and professionally integrate the asylum seekers into the Swiss labour market.
