🌐 DiversiTech

By Shaina Silawan


🧩 Project Overview

DiversiTech is a website designed to support underrepresented students—especially students of color, low-income students, and first-generation college students—by connecting them with opportunities in the tech industry.

The platform serves as a centralized hub for:

  • 🌟 Internships
  • 💼 Job Listings
  • 🧑‍🏫 Mentorship Programs
  • 📅 Events
  • 🤝 Networking Opportunities

All resources are curated to break down systemic barriers to entry and help students navigate the tech field with confidence.


🎯 Social Justice Focus

This project addresses the inequitable access to tech careers. Although the tech sector continues to expand, many students from marginalized backgrounds lack the accessibility, mentorship, and resources needed to succeed.

These disparities result in significant underrepresentation of diverse talent in the tech workforce.


💡 How DiversiTech Helps

DiversiTech provides:

  • A curated list of diversity-focused programs and opportunities
  • Access to inclusive organizations and events
  • A simple platform for students to find relevant resources easily

By centralizing these tools, the website empowers users to:

  • Build stronger networks
  • Gain valuable experience
  • Feel seen and supported in their career journey

Ultimately, DiversiTech is part of the larger movement to dismantle gatekeeping in tech and promote equity in one of the world’s most influential industries.
