We are pleased to announce the launch of our new brand campaign "She codes Africa" - IBM Robot Automation for the Common Good. The tech show with Sofonie Dala
She Codes Africa - IBM RPA Solution to Address Climate change
Digital transformation has become the key for processes involving people and companies.
Good morning ladies and gentlemen!
My name is Sofonie Dala, I am from Angola. I'm happy to see you again in this fantastic program!
In today's program we will be building a bot with IBM RPA that makes a difference in the world and contributes to society. We will combine technology with solutions to social challenges already developed on our platform. We will be developing code to meet today's and future needs.
Artificial inteligence: Supporting and inspiring women and girls to address tomorrow's needs and aspirations
By using opportunities offered by IBM, we will create a space that gives rural and vulnerable urban women and girls a chance to learn programming in an environment that makes them feel safe, empowered and inspired.
Practical exercise 1 – Starting the browser “Climax” on IBM RPA Studio
We created our own browser and named it climax- The bot opens our medium digital platform enabling women and young people to navigate the range of available positive climate action resources and not only.
Practical exercise 2 – Interactive chatbot
This hands-on lab we used RPA Automation Studio to create and deploy our own chatbot. This RPA interactive chatbot educates ladies and young people to reduce their carbon footprints in the environment by avoiding plastic items which cannot be reusable.
Saving the Chatbot, then successfully running the bot

As the world continues to move dramatically towards online channels, the nature of how and why we use the internet is evoluting. That evolution will not stop, which is why it is critical for us to focus on the future and invest in what people and companies will need years from now, not simply what they are desperate for today.
Leaving No One Behind in a Digital World
"Being able to use a mobile phone and being able to access the internet requires certain skills, including literacy, as well as digital skills." And if you look at education on the continent, many women fall behind men in terms of literacy levels. Some 200 million Africans are still offline — either voluntarily or involuntarily.
Therefore, this project is for those marginalized group who lack access to digital technologies and knowledge, skills and competencies required to navigate them.
Conclusions
To conclude, the IBM RPA bots represent opportunities for positive social impact. Chatbots can make needed services more accessible, available, and affordable. They can strengthen users' autonomy, competence, and (possibly counter-intuitively) social relatedness.
The project will have a positive environmental impact because it will decrease the amount of waste dumped in rivers and on land by replacing disposable items and plastic sanitary pads with washable, reusable pads in millions homes.
We make the delivery of occupational education and skills training, employment of women and young people, special benefits for the employees. Looking at the social issues our communities currently facing, we are solving it by providing skills development for empowerment.
By empowering young ladies to learn coding, we are creating leaders who will build applications that will positively impact people's lives in Angola as well as reduce illiteracy and unemployment rates.
