To offer paid internships to Haitian students supported by experienced professionals working abroad.
First edition in 2018 (June–August) with a student from the Faculty of Sciences at the State University of Haiti and a student from the Ecole Supérieure d’Infotronique d’Haïti, who completed internships in web application development. They were mentored remotely by three experienced software engineers: Claire Marie Guerre Giordano (France), Stevens Valery Nelson (Canada), and Emeric Seraphin (France).
First edition budget: €4,700
