CoderDojo Sri Lanka has officially joined forces with Code Club to form one global community dedicated to empowering young tech enthusiasts across the world! Going forward, we’ll be known as CodeClub Sri Lanka, bringing new opportunities and resources for our community.
📰 Earlier this year, the @stemuplk launched the micro:bit in Libraries programme across all of Sri Lanka. STEMUP sought to increase access to micro:bits, specifically to empower disadvantaged children with the tools & knowledge needed to thrive in the digital age.

We have entered into an MoU with Microsoft, formalising a pilot project that will introduce AI into the school curriculum for students above Grade 8. This project will be initiated in 20 schools across 20 districts, ensuring each selected school is equipped with the necessary technological tools and conducive classrooms.
I had the pleasure of meeting Mr @puneetck, President of Microsoft’s India and South Asia region, and other representatives from Microsoft. They assured us of their support, aligning with our educational goals, and made a commitment to provide a dedicated team to support and facilitate online educational activities. The Education Ministry has set 2025 as the target year for full implementation.
With this initiative, we plan to prepare our youth for the evolving needs of the job market and the growing importance of AI across various sectors. Our youth will possess the skills to innovate and lead in AI, data science, cybersecurity, and other fields. We will take every measure needed to prepare our students for today’s jobs and future opportunities, improving their career prospects and competitiveness, both locally and globally.
Coolest Projects is a celebration of young digital creators and the amazing things they make with technology.
The registration for Coolest Projects Sri Lanka 2024 is currently open to all creators under the age of 18. Join now!
