Helping Girls from Afghanistan

We believe barriers to education should never become barriers to a girl’s future.

Our Mission

Helping girls from Afghanistan build knowledge and technical skills through accessible software engineering education and academic support.

Our Vision

Creating a safe and supportive learning environment where girls from Afghanistan can build knowledge, technical skills and confidence for university and their future.

Why Kaaj Code Exists

We believe that educating girls and women strengthens families, communities and future generations. Yet since September 2021, girls from Afghanistan have been denied access to secondary education and since December 2022, women have been excluded from universities. Today, approximately 2.2 million adolescent girls remain unable to study beyond primary school.

Bilingual Learning

Clear software engineering courses in both English and Dari.

Practical Skills and Support

Step-by-step lessons and mentor support that help students learn with confidence.

Building Future Generations

Education helps women strengthen their families and support the development of future generations.

Our Story

In Memory of Niloofar

KaajCode was created in memory of Niloofar Muradi, a young student from Afghanistan who lost her life in the September 2022 attack on the Kaaj Educational Center in Kabul while preparing for university. Her dedication to education reminds us why learning must continue. Through KaajCode, we honor her memory by helping girls from Afghanistan continue their education and build opportunities for their future.
