Prepare the next generation
We equip children ages 8-18 with the skills and knowledge to thrive in the tech industry.
Foka Labs Foundation is a non-profit organization with a global mission: to bridge the cultural and technological divides that hinder future generations from reaching their full potential.
We equip children ages 8-18 with the skills and knowledge to thrive in the tech industry.
We foster reciprocal learning exchanges between youth from developed and developing countries.
In our Tech program, we ignite young minds with the power of engineering and technology. Students will embark on an exciting journey of discovery as they learn to design, build, and develop games. Through hands-on projects and collaborative learning, they will develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork skills.

Coding challenges include a plethora of competitions like hackathons, programming challenges, and more. They are aimed at challenging your coding skills. Hackathons generally include developing an app/game/website based on a particular theme. Whereas programming challenges are time-bound activities that need participants to solve coding problems in a stipulated time.
Kids can start learning to code as early as 5-6 years old. When kids learn to code, it’s typically done under the guidance of a game. This makes the process fun and engaging while the kids are still learning a new skill.
Coding is a skill that requires specialized knowledge. While there are many resources available online that can help you catch up on the basics and start teaching coding to your child. However, the best and most effective way to teach a child to code is by ensuring they have a qualified and trained computer science teacher to guide them on their coding journey.
Coding for kids and teenshelps improve their logical thinking, critical thinking, problem-solving skills, creativity, mathematics and writing skills and also gives them valuable skills in life and at the workplace. Coding provides a competitive advantage when applying to colleges, internships, and jobs. In addition, basic programming knowledge can change how kids and teens interact daily with the technologies they use. It’s a basic literacy–one we can’t afford to overlook.
There is no shortage of websites and platforms that offer free access to resources to teach coding to kids and teens. However, every child learns differently and at a different pace, and guided learning is a far more effective method for teaching kids to code. Coding is a specialized subject and Coding instructors with Computer Science background are best suited to teach it in a live format. Your child will develop interest in coding with right guidance from the teachers. You can try a free class with FokaLabs Foundation to experience the magical world of coding.
