The NPO Code for All will be holding an event titled "Learning from Case Studies of Eliminating Disparities in Children's Experiences: The Frontline of Solving Social Issues Beyond the Boundaries of Companies and NPOs" on Monday, September 2, 2024.
Code for All has the vision of "making Japan a country where everyone can enjoy technology creatively," and since its founding in 2015 has been working to develop information and technology education at elementary, junior high, and high schools.

In recent years, the environment surrounding society has changed dramatically, and companies are expected to commit to solving various social issues while promoting their business. At this event, we will introduce efforts to eliminate the experience gap for children and cases of collaboration between companies and NPOs, and hold a talk session. Through this event, we hope to create collaboration between companies and NPOs that will have a major impact on Japan.
