Coder Dojo
CoderDojo is a global movement of free, open, volunteer-led coding clubs (Dojos) where young people aged 7–17 (Ninjas) can explore digital technology with the support of their fellow Ninjas and volunteer mentors. CoderDojo’s mission is to give young people around the world the opportunity to learn to code in a social and safe environment.
CoderDojo is an opportunity to get young people interested in coding by helping them create their own projects with code for example games or animation.
