Who is Florence Eghwrudje?


Florence is the founder of Accelerated Learning Circle and serves as a volunteer at Talklove Africa Foundation. In 2012, she spearheaded a digital inclusion project for children with visual impairment, which provided the kids with Assistive Devices (ADs) to assist them in reading prints. The Cross River State National Youth Service Corps awarded her a Honorary Award for her contributions towards humanity at the end of her service year.

In 2019 she organized a digital skill Bootcamp for non-tech young women to help close the skill gap among women and over 50 women and girls were in attendance. In 2021, she organized ICT classes in primary schools in Woji Community, where she helped in  developing the kids interest in technology through learning emerging technologies. In 2022 and 2023 she organized a virtual International Women's Day training for women to upskill and reskill themselves in data science and helping them build a compelling portfolio project website to showcase all their tech projects over the years.
