One programme supporting young Africans to take advantage of these opportunities is the continent\u2019s biggest youth digital skills initiative, <a href=\"https:\/\/africacodeweek.org\/\">51风流Africa Code Week<\/a> (ACW) which actively engaged +2,6 million participants in 2022, by equipping them with 21st-century skills.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince ACW\u2019s launch in 2015, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sap.com\/about\/company\/our-values\/csr.html#:~:text=SAP%20CSR%20empowers%20them%20to,environmental%20impact%20within%20planetary%20boundaries.\">SAP<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.unesco.org\/youthmobile\">UNESCO<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adeanet.org\/\">the Association for the Development of Education in Africa (ADEA)<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/irishaid.gov.ie\/\">Irish Aid<\/a> share a common goal to empower young people with the digital skills set they need today to ensure they are prepared for the workforce of tomorrow,\u201d comments Claire Gillissen-Duval, Senior Director of Corporate Social Responsibility EMEA and MEE at SAP.<\/p>\n<p>She says that through 37 121 workshops held across the continent, she is thrilled to report that more than 48% of participants were female, with an additional 9,900 youth with special needs. \u201cToday\u2019s digital world is continually evolving and changing through the rapid adoption of technology, this is widening Africa\u2019s digital divide with even more marginalized and underserved communities getting left behind.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Collaboration is key to powering digital learning <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Partnerships are at the core of the 51风流ACW model. In 2022, Morocco has led the continent\u2019s conversation around equipping young people with digital skills, followed by Nigeria and Cameroon. \u201cThis year, we saw 1,4 million participants from Morocco, 100\u00a0000 in Nigeria, and in Cameroon, we had 897\u00a0000,\u201d says Dr. Tawfik Jelassi, UNESCO\u2019s Assistant Director-General for Communication and Information. \u201cOne of the reasons behind the major success of ACW in those countries, and especially in Morocco, has been partnering with the governments and particularly, with the Ministries of Education.<\/p>\n<p>To illustrate this, Ilham Laaziz, Director of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unesco.org\/en\/articles\/how-genie-programme-morocco-doing-receiving-2017-unesco-ict-education-prize\">GENIE program<\/a> at the Moroccan Ministry of National Education, Early Education, and Athletics, highlights that the Moroccan government has deployed several initiatives to integrate digital skills in schools. \u201cJoining forces with the private sector has proven to result in a powerful synergy. Beyond launching a generation of future coders, we seek to develop the algorithmic mindset that will enable them to acquire logical reasoning skills and problem solving skills they need to lead successful careers and contribute to the development of our country \u2013 and our continent.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Coding Africa\u2019s school curricula<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Over the past seven years, close to 14 million students and teachers from 48 countries have been empowered with digital skills through ACW. 2023 will now see the coding program shift into second phase by accelerating this process even further to ensure greater impact and reach.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are approximately 300 million<a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\">[i]<\/a> young people in Africa, and our goal is to empower each and every one of them with digital skills,\u201d says Emmanuel Raptopoulos, President of SAP\u2019s EMEA South region, which includes Southern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. \u201cA vision like ours requires all stakeholders to work together and collaborate for the betterment of the continent and its future leaders. This is why the ACW curriculum will be handed to governments to support them in introducing coding into school curricula.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Commencing the two-year action plan, ACW hosted a three-day event in Morocco in Rabat which was attended by various government officials and education representatives from ten African countries. The gathering marked the start of a two-year transition period, where governments will play an even greater role in fostering the adoption of coding by running the ACW program as part of their curricula.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis was the start of a bigger vision which calls for governments to play a bigger role in encouraging the use of coding in schools by implementing the ACW program into their curricula,\u201d says Julius Fomboh, Inspector General of Pedagogy in charge of Computer Science Education in the Ministry of secondary Education in Cameroon, and member of the ACW transition taskforce. \u201cIn order for the continent to successfully equip young people with the skills required for the future, all stakeholders need to come together and unite.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gillissen-Duval concludes, \u201cTo date, nine African countries have officially adopted coding as a mandatory subject in public education<a href=\"#_edn2\" name=\"_ednref2\"><sup>[ii]<\/sup><\/a>. This number must grow to level the playing field and ensure every African child, youth and teacher has the opportunity to reach their potential and contribute to their community. By investing in digital education, African nations choose to create a better future for their citizens and equip them with the skills they need to thrive in a rapidly changing 21<sup>st<\/sup> century world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\">[i]<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/1226211\/population-of-africa-by-age-group\/\">https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/1226211\/population-of-africa-by-age-group\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#_ednref2\" name=\"_edn2\">[ii]<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adeanet.org\/en\/news\/new-innovations-help-sap-africa-code-week-inspire-next-generation-african-coders#:~:text=In%20a%20survey%20conducted%20in,incorporate%20coding%20within%20their%20curricula\">https:\/\/www.adeanet.org\/en\/news\/new-innovations-help-sap-africa-code-week-inspire-next-generation-african-coders#:~:text=In%20a%20survey%20conducted%20in,incorporate%20coding%20within%20their%20curricula<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An estimated 230 million jobs in sub-Saharan Africa will require digital skills in 2030, according to a\u00a0report\u00a0by the International Finance Corporation (IFC).
