This past week, AOA and the Ethiopian Mathematics Professionals Association collaborated to train students for the July PanAfrican math and informatics olympiads in Kigali. 10 AddisCoder alums participated in the informatics training, and six will represent Ethiopia in Kigali.

9th to 11th graders, apply to the (free!) AddisCoder 2025 4-week summer camp by the December 31st deadline to learn algorithms and programming.
Teaching assistant volunteers can also apply.
Camp dates: to be determined, 4 weeks in summer 2025.

@AddisCoder 2018 alum from Bahir Dar (Henok Biadglign Ademtew) just sent me this image: presenting his first research paper at an ACL workshop.
Find the paper here: aclanthology.org/2024.loresm…

...The professors who taught us were from top universities, and we also had assistance from experienced assistants who studied computer science and had worked in companies like Google.

HMA students' summer activities are still going strong! @AddisCoder is an intensive 4-week summer program in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Guest lecturers from schools like MIT and Caltech introduce the basics of Python programming and algorithm design/analysis.

Another one of our AddisCoder students, Abtsega, was accepted to KIIT in India with a full scholarship, but is similarly looking to raise funds for his plane ticket, insurance, and pocket money. If you're inclined to help, here's the link: gofund.me/527dc8f2

One of our AddisCoder alums, Abenezer, was admitted to KIIT in India to study Comp Sci, with a full scholarship worth $60k USD. The scholarship doesn't cover air tickets, medical insurance, and pocket money; you can support him with this GoFundMe: gofund.me/8560201c
