– Description: Code for Albania is a connecting bridge between the forefront of technology, Silicon Valley, and Albania. A unique partnership of a non-profit founded by the Albanian Technology Diaspora in California (AlphaPlan), and a non-profit from Stanford University, (Code.X) offers a 3-year Computer Science and Design Thinking program for high-school students in Albania. This program goes beyond promoting the technical side of programming, and delves into how to enable the youth to think about solving real needs in their communities. Code for Albania has 30 participants, maintains a student.teacher ratio of 3/1, and includes: (i) Two-week summer camp with instructors from Stanford University; (ii) Classes once a month during the school year with local instructors; and (iii) Information sessions with experts from the Albanian Diaspora in the field of technology and entrepreneurship
