\"Sabre<\/a>Southlake, Texas, United States, November 22, 2022 \/ TRAVELINDEX \/ Sabre Corporation announced a partnership with Girls Who Code (GWC), an international non-profit organization dedicated to closing the gender gap in technology and changing the image of what a programmer looks like and does.<\/p>\n

Sabre’s sponsorship will help empower a generation of change-makers by supporting Girls Who Code after school clubs for 3rd to 12th graders, which seek to educate, engage and connect girls with technology in their communities.

\u201cAs a leading technology provider for the travel industry, Sabre has a vested interest in making sure tomorrow\u2019s brightest technologists embody the rich diversity that we need in our company,\u201d Shawn Williams, Chief People Officer for Sabre. \u201cGirls Who Code and its focus on gender equity in engineering and other technology fields aligns with our commitment to embrace a culture where every team member has an opportunity to be successful as we work together to develop the solutions that will power the future of travel.\u201d<\/p>\n

Through Sabre\u2019s Women In Tech resource group, Sabre team members will have the opportunity to actively engage in Girls Who Code events, community-building activities and recruitment opportunities for Sabre internships and careers.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt Girls Who Code, we understand that it\u2019s not enough to foster a passion for computer science among girls and young women. We also need to build pathways to ensure that they are given equal access to opportunities that turn their interest into lucrative and exciting careers,\u201d said Tarika Barrett, CEO of Girls Who Code. \u201cOur partnership with Sabre is an important step in our work to close the gender gap in tech and level the playing field for our most marginalized students.\u201d<\/p>\n
