Code with kids is a volunteer-led program that organizes computer sessions for young people aged 6–18. We are creating opportunities for young people to explore technology and learn how to code. Code with kids gives young people confidence, new friends, and valuable skills for the future, and opens up new avenues for children who might not otherwise have such learning opportunities.

Our Young Founders (ages 12–15) had a fun and super interactive masterclass with Moritz from Germany all about storytelling and pitching their startup ideas with confidence. 🎤💡
This session was part of our Young Founders incubation program, where kids turn their ideas into real products and ventures: / codewithkids.africa/learner-startups

Moritz helped our learners:
👉 Turn their ideas into clear, memorable stories
👉 Put the customer as the “hero” and their startup as the “guide”
👉 Avoid “death by PowerPoint” with simple, visual slides
👉 Use their voice and body language to pitch with confidence

And he didn’t come empty-handed…
On a cold Nairobi morning, he brought yummy, nutritious mandazi from Mandazi Power, and we all shared hot tea + mandazi together. ☕️🥐 The vibes were warm, homely and full of questions from our curious young founders.

Moritz ALSO boosted our Esports & digital skills program by donating:
🎮 2 PlayStation consoles with FIFA 2025 + Minecraft
🎮 3 extra PS4 pads so more kids can play and learn together

For us, Esports is more than games. We use it to teach:
✨ Teamwork
✨ Strategy
✨ Digital literacy
✨ Discipline & resilience

We’re so grateful for Moritz’s time, mentorship and generosity in supporting the next generation of African innovators. 🙏🏾

At Code With Kids, we had the honor of traveling to Wuzhen, China for the Enjoy AI 2025 Global Finals with Madam Mary Kerema, OGW – Secretary for ICT, E-Government, and Digital Economy in Kenya’s Ministry of ICT and the Digital Economy. 🇰🇪✈️🇨🇳

In August, we proudly hosted the Enjoy AI 2025 Kenya Championship in Nairobi. That journey led us to Wuzhen, where 36 brilliant young innovators represented Kenya on the global stage, showcasing the creativity and resilience of young people back home.

While in China, we joined the 2025 International Forum on Educational Robotics Development, Learning Innovation, and Talent Cultivation in the Age of AI. Madam Mary delivered a powerful keynote, “Empowering Humanity in the Age of Intelligent Machines: Rethinking Education, Creativity, and Purpose,” and joined a high-level panel on deploying AI in classrooms and building inclusive digital ecosystems that leave no one behind.

Our founder, Renice Owino, represented Kenya and Code With Kids as a panelist in “ENJOY AI Stories from Around the World,” sharing how we use educational robotics and AI literacy to reach learners from Nairobi to Kajiado and Turkana, alongside inspiring leaders from across the globe. Together, we explored how hands-on robotics, teacher support, and global collaboration can transform classrooms and futures.

Moments like these remind us that a child learning to code in Kenya can build solutions for the world — and this is just the beginning.

Huge shout-out to Madam Mary Kerema, OGW, for joining us and witnessing young learners proudly flying the Kenyan flag on the global stage. ❤️🇰🇪

At the Eco Heroes Hackathon, The Wisemen turned sunshine into innovation.
Remnicx, Jabari, and Sam built JuaPower, a web platform that lets users easily book access to clean solar energy systems through an online booking page.
Their project proves how young people can use code to create real climate solutions, making renewable energy more accessible and organised for the communities around them.
This is the kind of future‑focused problem solving we love to see.

Team Champions really took it to the next level at our Eco Heroes Hackathon.
They built AirGuard, an industrial air‑pollution monitoring dashboard that tracks CO₂, NOx, SO₂ and PM2.5 emissions across different facilities in real time.
From live metric cards and emission trend charts to compliance status and threshold alerts, their project doesn’t just display data—it also suggests practical reduction strategies to help industries actively lower their environmental impact.
This is exactly what we mean when we say young people can code solutions for a greener tomorrow.

The team Scripters won in their category with a brilliant project: a chatbot that teaches people about deforestation and includes a quiz game where users earn points as they answer questions correctly.
It’s a powerful blend of education and gamification that raises awareness, rewards curiosity, and shows exactly how young people can use technology to protect the planet.

Team members: Jenny Fair, Patricia, Ezekiel and Rebecca.

36 brilliant young innovators from Kenya took our flag all the way to Wuzhen, China for the Enjoy AI 2025 Global Finals and they did not disappoint.

From December 5–7, 2025, learners aged 7–18 used AI, coding and robotics to tackle global challenges in three categories: Battle of Tribes, Cyber City and Geometry Forest, showing just how powerful African youth can be when given the chance.

Learners came from incredible schools and organizations across Kenya, including , CITAM School Buruburu, , , and proof that talent lives in every community. We are so proud that they got to travel, interact with the world and showcase their creativity, resilience and brilliance.

As we mark this milestone, stay tuned for registration details for the Enjoy AI 2026 Kenya Championship – the next wave of young AI and robotics innovators is coming!
