“The Responsible Technology Youth Power Fund is a first of its kind philanthropic initiative aimed at supporting youth and intergenerationally led organizations shaping the responsible technology movement. The Fund, now in its second year, has raised over $4.5 million to support 501(c)3 eligible public charities with award amounts ranging from $25,000 to $150,000 — based on the stage of the organization and funding needs.”
ABOUT THE PROGRAM:
PPL is a supported grantee of the Fund and will be starting the first Code Green cohort Summer 2025. Code Green was initiated as a responsible tech program interconnected with social and environmental justice targeted to incoming first year highschoolers to recent college graduates from any background interested in environmental and data justice. Understanding the youth participants in this summer program will be informative for future research areas, and add nuance to pedagogy of the intersection of environmental justice, data justice, and data-driven research tools for youth participatory action research projects.
As part of Code Green, you could:
-
Gain technical training in data collection, analysis, and visualization
-
Become experienced to real-world issues affecting vulnerable communities, culminating in presentations and policy recommendations
