Girl-led
Members choose the problems. Their lived experience is expertise.
About
Built by girls, for girls who build.
HERithm is a global platform where girls identify real problems, use AI and code to develop solutions, collaborate internationally, and ship technology addressing the issues they care about. Education happens through building.
Why HERithm exists
Technology education should begin with agency.
Too often, girls are invited to learn technology through exercises detached from their lives. HERithm begins somewhere else: with a problem they have noticed and a reason to care.
Yasmin founded HERithm to create a space where girls don’t stop at learning technology; they use it to investigate, design, code, test, and share solutions with their communities.
The HERithm method
Learn technology by building what matters.
Every project follows a practical path. AI supports the thinking, but the member owns the problem, the decisions, the code, and the impact.

What guides us
Responsible AI
AI is a collaborator for learning, never a substitute for judgment or original work.
Accessible by design
Useful technology should include people with different abilities, devices, and connections.
Evidence before assumptions
Projects begin by listening and improve through honest testing.
Open collaboration
Chapters learn across borders and build with, not only for, communities.
Impact over polish
A small tool that helps real people matters more than an impressive idea that stays hypothetical.
