Do you think the African governments have taken adequately invested in STEM education?
Although data to back this up is lacking, we have seen some form of political will across Africa when it comes to STEM education. In Nigeria for example, the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) has set up hubs across universities and communities to empower young people with skills required for STEM careers.
We have also seen the rise of coding and robotics centres in various countries across Africa for learners as young as three to learn STEM. One area where political will might work more is governments including coding and robotics in the curriculum just like the government of Kenya did sometime ago, and beyond that, equipping both the schools and teachers for this development is equally important.
