DAY OF THE AFRICAN CHILD: Empowering the Next Africa’s Tech Giants

As we commemorate Day of the African Child on June 16, Digital Skills for Africa is proud to join hands in celebrating the courage, resilience, and potential of African children. This day, with its roots in the historic Soweto Uprising of 1976, is a powerful reminder of the importance of education and the right of every child to access quality learning opportunities. At Digital Skills for Africa, we believe in the transformative power of education and are committed to equipping young Africans with the digital skills they need to succeed in the 21st century.
