Book excerpt: There is no girl or boy gamer. A gamer is a gamer. I am Namya Joshi and have spent the last four years designing and delivering free of cost coding workshops for more than 10,000 teachers, young people, especially girls, in India and all over the world, as well as empowering other young people to run their own coding clubs. I have raised awareness about the social issues using game based learning with STEM. My parents are from the field of IT. And if I go by people’s perception it’s quite obvious I will pursue the same field as it is genetic. But my purpose has always been very clear that why do we see very less girls in this field? You will see boys dominating the field of computer sciences and field of IT. Dreams come true only when you believe in them, and meeting Satya Nadella, the CEO of Microsoft, a man with exceptional leadership and delivery skills, was one such dream. This lockdown gave me strength, and the skills I learned paved the way for me to start the #GirlsInStem club. This was a perfect example of my credo, #EachOneTeachTen. For my ongoing efforts of creating and empowering others, I was honoured with the Pradhan Mantri Rastriya Bal Puraskar, India's highest civilian award for an individual under the age of 18 years old. When we inspire girls to pursue careers in STEM, a glass ceiling will vanish. I was inspired by an incident. Who knows the next person out of you reading might be here ....have faith and belief and see magic happening in your life.
