Woebots makes #LowHighTech 3D printers. It is the first “Made in Africa” 3D printer under the mother program 3DprintAfrica, whose objective is to bring the technology available to everybody.

Starting in June 2017, OpenCode Academy by WoeLabs aims to prepare young teenagers (9 to 15 years old) for the increasingly digitalized world. Computer science students and volunteers of Woelabs help young teens with learning digital devices and getting familiar with new technologies.

At the beginning of every school year, we start by asking kids what they want to do - and all year long we encourage them with the realization of their own project... with computer classes, programming, design, DIY, modeling, electronics, prototyping, and 3D printing. The kids are free to change their ideas throughout the year and are encouraged to help others.
