We create a long term impact in people's lives by enabling social mobility and financial inclusion condensed into four main pillars: 1) Education in Technology, 2) Access to high demand jobs, 3) Salary Increase and 4)Access to Financial Services. Holacode provides the tools for migrants to hack their obstacles and be the designers of their own path and changemakers of their communities. Therefore we designed and built a program specifically for young migrants to radically transform their lives, their communities and the tech sector. At HolaCode, we see endless potential in the migrant community for the tech sector: resilience, adaptability, language and transferable skills and a great capacity for problem solving. Observing those parallel challenges, we saw that they could be transformed into opportunities.
Local companies are scrambling to find skilled English-speaking, adaptable, autonomous software developers. They are unable to access formal-sector jobs, enroll in university due to numerous bureaucratic obstacles or lack of funds, they lack access to loans, face language and cultural barriers, a deficit of social capital and they also face discrimination and criminalization.Īs Mexico’s migrant population expands, the tech sector in Mexico is also booming. Upon arrival to Mexico, returnees and refugees are exposed to marginalization and can easily fall into poverty traps.
We find untapped potential tech talent teach them how to think like software engineers and become autonomous learners and support them as they start careers as software developers. Holacode was founded in 2017 to integrate returned migrants and refugees in Mexico through edtech, access to high-demand jobs, and access to financial inclusion.
We also believe that each community member is in charge of their future and that they are their own agent of change, with this mentality we stray from words such as help and instead use words such as “support the community” or Holacode “facilitates” the tools to support in the integration of the community. We don’t engage with media outlets who use terms like “criminal aliens,” “illegal,” or who do criminal background checks on our students. Therefore, we ask that you do not criminalize our students. We work hard to create relationships with our students based on trust and if a journalist brings up a past misdeed, crime, or violation that led to deportation, for example, it could bring up past trauma and affect our work and the student’s trust in HolaCode. However, deportation, return and exile can be traumatic and we are focused on our students’ present and future - not their past. HolaCode is committed to raising awareness related to migration issues and therefore we love sharing our story and asking students to share theirs.
