The Ada Initiative
We are a non-profit organization dedicated to increasing participation of women in open technology and culture.
By now, most people in open technology and culture have noticed the scarcity of women in their communities, and want to change that. They just don’t know how. That’s where we come in. Our strategy for change is simple: Give concrete, straight-forward advice to willing and eager audiences.
