Africa Skills Week: A Call to prioritise Technical and Vocational Education
Africa's rapidly growing working-age population, projected to triple by 2050, is creating a unique opportunity for African nations to develop a highly educated and skilled workforce. Recognizing this potential, the African Union (AU) is focusing on improving educational and career opportunities for the continent’s youth to secure long-term economic prosperity. Central to this effort is the integration of education and skills development with employment opportunities, particularly in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) skills, which are expected to be in high demand.
