Happy Africa Youth Day! As we observe Africa Youth Month, we recognize the incredible contributions, resilience, and boundless potential of Africa’s young people. Under this year’s theme, “1 Million Next Level is Knocking: Educate an African Fit for the 21st Century,” we celebrate a generation poised to shape Africa’s future—through education, innovation, and leadership. Young Africans are the driving force behind transformative change, harnessing their knowledge and skills to address the most pressing challenges of our time. From pioneering in technology and entrepreneurship to advocating for peace, health, and sustainable development, African youth are building a continent that is inclusive, equitable, and future-ready. As global partners, policymakers, and communities, it is our responsibility to invest in quality education and holistic development, ensuring that every young person has the tools to succeed in the 21st century. Lets aspire to unlock the potential of Africa’s youth, fostering an environment that supports their ambitions and empowers them to lead. Here’s to the voices of African youth, echoing the promise of a continent on the rise. Let us continue to listen, invest, and meaningfully act, creating an Africa where young people can thrive, lead, and inspire the world. #AfricaYouthMonth #YouthEmpowerment #NextGenAfrica #SDGs #InvestInYouth #FutureOfAfrica

I'm tired of asking who bewitched Africa, of blaming our colonizers, and of pointing fingers at our rogue politicians. I am green with envy as I watch other nations thrive, but rather than dwell on this, I've decided to channel my energy into action and call upon you, the goodwill ambassadors, to join the cause. In the heart of Africa, under the scorching sun, a young girl named Ada stands at the crossroads of destiny and disparity. Her village, alive with culture and spirit, faces a silent crisis: the dreams of its children are stunted by the echo of empty classrooms and a lack of real-world skills. While nations like China launch their children into the future with advanced vocational training and industry collaborations, Ada and countless others are trapped in an educational system mired in outdated theories and disconnected from today’s practical demands. Today, we stand on the brink of an AI-driven future, a horizon bursting with potential yet clouded by inequality. This technology, miraculous in its capabilities, promises a beacon of hope but also presents a stark divide. Will Ada and millions like her grasp the wonders of this new era, or will they be left behind in the digital dust? Destination Imagination Africa is spearheading initiatives like Greentech Rangers, one of its key projects to revolutionize education across the continent. It represents a critical surge towards an education revolution in Africa—an urgent transformation that combines vocational training with cutting-edge STEM education. This is our call to action, to merge technology with humanity, ensuring that every child, no matter their start in life, can seize control of their future with empowered hands. But how do we shift from potential disparity to shared prosperity? Can we unite to change the narrative for Ada and the future leaders of Africa? The time to act is now! Let’s inspire, engage, and equip our youth. Let's ensure that no one is left behind as we make this great digital leap forward. Join the revolution. Be the change. Embrace the future. Will you be part of this transformation? Follow Ms Kim , for your daily dose of inspiration and updates on how together we can forge a path where technology is a tool for empowerment, not exclusion. Let's raise our voices for Ada, for Africa, and for our global community. #EducationForAll #TechForGood #GreenTechRanger #STEMAfrica #FutureLeaders

Why do we think Vocational Training College is for people who failed to Excel in KCSE,KCPE or those who dropped in between?(to Kenyans) Can we take advantage of CBC curriculum and Competency Based Assessment it offers to infuse such practical stimulating learning, so that we achieve the real objectives of CPE (Competency Based Education) here in Kenya? In my micro ways, I am influencing this. KICD is with us in this, the boulders are too many for them; otherwise we could right now be feeling the true impact of the shift. As they sort policy issues, let's work on our perceptions, expectations and start to walk the talk. Small steps count,even one.

Gambia needs a bold rethink of our current educational curriculum. In today’s rapidly evolving world, technology and skills development are no longer optional—they are essential. To equip the next generation for the challenges of the future, we must embrace innovation and prioritize hands-on learning, critical thinking, and adaptability. Join the revolution. Be the change. It’s time to shape a brighter future, one where our youth are empowered with the skills and knowledge to thrive in a digital world. Let's embrace the future together.

We celebrated the 24th International Youth Day yesterday to reflect on young people's challenges and recognise their significant impact worldwide. In continuation of that deserved recognition, this post is dedicated to honouring the resilience, passion, and grit of our youth ambassadors and volunteers towards peacebuilding and development across varied Nigeria communities and in the diaspora, and also to the innumerable youth peacebuilders and changemakers who contribute to making our world a better place. Young people globally work, often unnoticed, in diverse areas such as climate change, peacebuilding, human rights, education, equality and inclusion, and security, among others, leveraging technology and digital innovations more than ever. Nevertheless, the challenges facing the youth are numerous, which is why this season is important – to reflect on what is going on in the youth world and give necessary support to advance their voice. While we look inward to encourage ourselves as a youth-led organisation to keep up our excellent work, we also extend similar encouragement to every youth and youth-led organisation to never give up on transforming our world positively. Our world needs all hands on deck; we need you to survive, young people. Keep leveraging digital innovation for sustainable peace and development. You matter, youth. #youthcelebration #digitalinnovation #progress #sdgs

As the African Union commemorates Africa Day, we're sparking meaningful conversations and sharing visionary ideas about the future of education in Africa. Education is the bedrock of Africa's progress and development, powering socio-economic growth, innovation, and transformation. By championing 21st-century education, we're empowering the next generation with the skills, knowledge, and adaptability to succeed in a rapidly evolving, tech-driven world. This theme harmonizes perfectly with Agenda 2063, the African Union's master plan, and Nemvas Educational Group's corporate strategy, paving the way for Africa's prosperous future and socio-economic metamorphosis. At Legends Hub Legends Hub (#MakeItHappen) , we join forces with this vision, aligning with Global SDG 4: Quality Education, to ensure inclusive and equitable access to education for all, fostering a brighter future for Africa and the world. #AfricaDay #EducationFitForThe21stCentury #Agenda2063 #SDG4 #QualityEducation #LegendsHub #MakeItHappen #SustainableDevelopment"
