Zomia Coding Project
Helping refugees build new lives and brighter futures.
Since the summer of 2021, over 85,000 Afghans refugees have resettled in the United States. The Zomia Coding Project teaches coding and web development to Afghan refugees and helps them find work in tech. To date, Zomia has reached over 500 Afghan refugees. In Q2 of 2023, Zomia launched our first free immersive coding bootcamp for Afghan refugees, providing scholarships for eight recipients to study web development full time.
