Project presentation

The project

In Paris and throughout France, the phenomenon of girls dropping out of school from the priority neighborhoods, correlated with the precariousness of modest families, is increasingly important and affects their integration into working life.

The project of the association Descodeuses aims to combat this phenomenon and the stigmata associated with the women from the priority neighborhoods, and to allow the professional integration of these women in the digital sector. This is in response to the double observation of the under-representation of women in this sector, as well as the multitude of possible opportunities for gainful and recruiting occupations. 16 women in precarious situations will receive intensive and professional 6-month training (theoretical courses, practical workshops and internships) to acquire the necessary skills and will be accompanied until obtaining a permanent contract in a digital business (web development, code, design, web marketing, etc.).
