we_coded 2024! Empowering Change for Gender Equity in Tech 🔥💪🏽

Everyone! we_coded is back, and we are excited to celebrate with you for the entire month of March.

What’s we_coded?

we_coded is our annual event dedicated to celebrating DEV members who are underrepresented and marginalized in the tech industry on the basis of gender, especially women, transgender, and nonbinary individuals. we_coded is a continuation of the conversation that started with #SheCoded six years ago, and it's our chance to amplify voices, share experiences, and foster a more inclusive future in technology. Allies are welcome!

What's in Store:

Dates: March 1 - March 31, 2024

we_coded isn't just another event, it's an opportunity to join together in a larger discussion about gender equity in tech. Together we can make an impact by sharing your thoughts, stories, ideas, and manifestos. 😉

This year, we commit to:

• Showcasing your stories, insights, and ideas on DEV and across our social platforms 💫
• Rewarding participants with a unique we_coded badge 💖

We hope this results in:

• Important perspectives, experiences, and stories being amplified 🔊
• New connections between like-minded individuals and organizations. 🌱
• A feeling of support amongst the community 🤗
