KAPOR CENTER

We work to empower dedicated students of color with an intensive science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education, culturally-relevant coursework, and access to resources and social capital that allow them to be successful and thrive in STEM education careers... The Kapor Center's work focuses at the intersection of racial justice and technology to create a more inclusive technology sector for all. We work to intentionally dismantle barriers to tech and deployment of technologies across the Leaky Tech Pipeline through research-driven practices, gap-closing investments, increased access to computer science education, supporting and partnering with mission-aligned organizations, advocating for needed policy change, and more... We believe that when technology design, creation, and investment includes diverse perspectives and is harnessed to address societal challenges, we can collectively transform the technology ecosystem and improve conditions to better reflect future..
