How do we grow the next wave of data-savvy thinkers and builders? This talk explores why it’s critical to invest in young people’s data and coding skills—not just for future careers, but for confident participation in a digital world. Dina will share insights from Dexterity Club, a hands-on initiative designed to spark curiosity and creativity in coding, and reflect on what’s worked, what’s surprised us, and what’s still to come.
