In the web\u2019s infancy, that meant recognizing trail-blazing websites. Today, the Webbys honor the best of video, advertising, media and public relations, social, apps, mobile, voice, games, and podcasts. Two awards are granted per category: The Webby Award and The Webby People\u2019s Voice Award. Members of the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences select nominees for both awards in each category as well as The Webby Award winner. The Webby People\u2019s Voice awards, however, is chosen via votes on the Webby Awards website. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Webby for Good is a collaborative program formed by The Webby Awards and WP Engine to showcase Webby-recognized projects built to change the world. From campaigns to create awareness around the dangers of distracted driving to a chatbot that matches people with a cause they are passionate about, Webby for Good nominees use digital experiences to make a change for good. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In celebration of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dayofthegirl.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"International Day of the Girl (opens in a new tab)\">International Day of the Girl<\/a> (October 11th), <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/girlswhocode.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Girls Who Code<\/a>, an international nonprofit organization working to close the gender gap in technology and change the image of what a programmer looks like and does, launched the visual album <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/girlswhocode.com\/sisterhood\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sisterh>>d<\/a>.

In order to facilitate a digital experience that most-appropriately showcased those values, the Girls Who Code team created a visual album. The album featured women and girls from different cultures and backgrounds using a variety of technical mediums to encourage activism and unity. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Girls Who Code, in collaboration with <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/creative.yourstru.ly\/\" target=\"_blank\">Yours Truly Creative<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.movingimageandcontent.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Moving Image &amp; Content<\/a>, created the visual album primarily for girls aged 13 to 22, so it was important that they used technical mediums that were relevant, engaging, and entertaining. In addition to creating a website that contained all the content, the Sisterh>>d album was shared strategically across Facebook in order to encourage engagement, interaction, and meaningful discussion. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"1080\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1080 \/ 1080;\" width=\"1080\" controls src=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Girls-who-code-5-word-speech.mp4\"><\/video><figcaption> On May 23rd, 2019, Girls Who Code accepted the Webby for Good Award for Public Service and Activism.
