INFO-PRO

INteractive FOcus on PROgramming

The INFO-PRO project aims to increase the digital job market chances of young people from socially disadvantaged communities  (e.g. ethnic minorities such as Roma communities in rural areas of Hungary and Slovakia) and young people with less educational privileges. This will be achieved through extracurricular events that focus on the acquisition of digital competencies and basic digital skills. Within the project, young people will have the opportunity to expand their basic programming skills, develop small games and in this way gain valuable insights into the world of game development and programming in general. In addition to programming basics, more general topics will also be covered, such as creating job applications, creating an email account, or working on digital tasks.

The project aims at:

  • Easing young people from marginalized and disadvantaged communities the pathway towards the job market
