Reposting for reach. There's a short list of alternative (similar?) groups to Women Who Code in this post and the comments. EDIT: The comments in the post have a longer list of communities advocating for women in tech.

Can you guess this female software engineer & entrepreneur? Hint: She advocated for more transparency on gender gap in tech, and published concrete data to address the problem.

I'm surprised by this gender gap on our platform: 87.6% men vs. 12.4% women. Nocode tools are supposed to be accessible to everyone. This reflects the broader nocode industry. Let's bridge this gap and support more women in nocode ✊ Diversity drives innovation👨🚀👩🚀🚀✨ #WomenInTech #NoCode

Working on this post has been inspiring, and I’ve learned so much from my incredible colleagues. Now, here’s my two cents. Lesson learned: Everyone experiences imposter syndrome at some point. This feeling never fully disappears, and it's often the most talented and hardworking individuals who struggle with it the most. What I’d tell my younger self: If something comes easily to you, remember it might not be the case for others. Focus on and enhance these effortless skills - they're your true strengths. Now, your turn.

What happens when DEI is not prioritized, pursued, and intentionally practiced? The few networks and organizations dedicated to inclusion and representation are also (consequently) impacted. This is not an issue that only affects the tech industry (although it is rampant!). The intentional attacks against DEI impact all industries, including education, healthcare, private, etc. The real question is what can WE do NOW to protect AND promote DEI?

#A Call to Action for the #TechCommunity ***I will always cherish the group that welcomed a woman who moved continents to a country with an unfamiliar language, surrounded her with confident and strong mentors, and helped her find the job of her dreams*** The closure of #WomenWhoCode and now today #GirlsinTech is a significant loss for the tech industry. These organisations have been instrumental in driving diversity, inclusion, and equity. Their legacies should inspire the tech community to #reflect on how we can do better support and sustain such critical movements, considering the #majorbias we have out there in tech, in data, AI, ML dev, indeed the inequality is real and about to impact us all on an even greater scale over the next 10 years. As we bid farewell to these organisations, we must remember that their missions are far from complete. The tech industry still urgently needs diverse perspectives to drive innovation and foster a healthy digital ecosystem that prioritises long-term benefits over short-term profits, ensuring a brighter future for the next generation. As #SerenaWilliams continuously highlights the broader landscape of funding for female-led initiatives has been challenging year after year. As of 2023, female-founded startups in the US received only about 2% of all venture capital funding. This stark disparity underscores the systemic issues women face in securing financial support, not just for startups, but clearly for established organisations dedicated to empowering the future of women in tech. We encourage everyone who has benefited from these communities to #continuetheirwork, support other like-minded organisations, and strive to create a tech industry where everyone can thrive - it all starts at home #empowerment. As a volunteer, and Global Communication Lead for Women at Adobe, I want to thank both organisations, the volunteers, staff, sponsors, and supporters of Women Who Code and Girls in Tech. Your contributions have made a lasting impact on me personally, and so many many more, I hope what you have started will continue in all of us to inspire future generations of women in tech and build toward equality and diversity in digital.

How sad! Girls in Tech, Inc. shut down shortly after Women Who Code. It's hard for every organization to get the funds and volunteers to keep sustainable, but why, lately, are those empowering women in engineering specifically being de-funded most? Thanks to Women Who Code and Girls in Tech for your work. Let's revert this bad trend with a big growth of others like AnitaB.org, Women in AI, Women In Technology (WIT), WomenTech Network, ... please tag more in the comments.
