Have you ever wondered how computers work? It's not as hard as you think: we can talk to them, just not the way we talk to other people. In this workshop, we're scrapping the motherboards for scraps of paper. Experience being a robot for an hour so you can learn how complex tasks are performed with simple instructions! All materials used will be recycled waste.

Facilitated by: Women Who Code Belfast & Farset Labs

One of our main goals is to develop the next generation of tech leaders, starting with getting children fascinated about IT. Find out more at https://www.womenwhocode.com
