HOMA BAY, Kenia, 20 maart 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Partners en cursisten van het Kenya DigiTruck-project hielden op 17 maart een afstudeerceremonie voor 290 jongeren in Homa Bay.

Tijdens de zes weken durende opleidingsfase, die plaatsvond in het kader van Huawei's TECH4ALL-initiatief voor digitale inclusie, werden 143 vrouwen en 147 mannen getraind in de digitale vaardigheden die nodig zijn om veilig en met vertrouwen door de hedendaagse digitale wereld te navigeren. De inhoud van de cursussen was op computervaardigheden, digitale marketing, ondernemerschap, financiële kennis en cyberbeveiliging gericht.

"Digitale vaardigheden zijn niet langer een optie - ze zijn absoluut noodzakelijk. Of je nu een online bedrijf opstart, op afstand werkt of gebruik maakt van technologie, digitale vaardigheden ontsluiten heel wat kansen," verklaart Dr. Raymond Omollo, C.B.S., hoofdsecretaris van het Staatsdepartement voor Binnenlandse Veiligheid en Nationale Administratie van Kenia.

De DigiTruck werkt volledig op zonne-energie en is uitgerust met werkstations, internetverbinding en digitale tools. Het is een mobiel klaslokaal achterop een vrachtwagen die naar afgelegen, moeilijk bereikbare gemeenschappen kan worden gereden. Sinds de lancering in 2019 in Kenia, heeft het DigiTruck-programma 6.030 jongeren in 36 districten een gratis opleiding gegeven, met bijzondere aandacht voor jonge werkzoekenden, meisjes en vrouwen. In 2024 alleen al waren 906 van de in totaal 1.648 cursisten vrouwen.

"Naast onze samenwerking met meer dan 60 universiteiten en TVET's voor universitaire opleidingen, gebruiken we de DigiTruck om jongeren buiten het formele onderwijs en in plattelandsgebieden te bereiken. Ik ben er trots op dat we hebben gezorgd voor een gelijke verdeling tussen mannen en vrouwen onder de cursisten, want digitale vaardigheden zijn voor iedereen in de huidige economie echt noodzakelijk," aldus Adam Lane, directeur Government Affairs and Policy voor Huawei.

Het DigiTruck-project is een partnerschap tussen Huawei, de Keniaanse ICT-autoriteit van het ministerie van Informatie, Communicatie en Digitale Economie, het ministerie van Jeugdzaken, de Nationale Jeugdraad, het Keniaanse Nationale Agentschap voor Innovatie, Safaricom, Computers for Schools Kenya en andere lokale partners.

Het project is afgestemd op de agenda voor bottom-up economische transformatie van het land en de agenda voor digitale supersnelwegen. Het weerspiegelt ook de inzet van de Keniaanse regering om de digitale kloof te overbruggen, de digitale leiders van morgen te stimuleren en creatieve economie te ontwikkelen. Zo bevatte de opleidingscursus in Homa Bay een innovatiewedstrijd die deelnemers aanmoedigde om praktische oplossingen te ontwerpen voor uitdagingen in de gemeenschap. De winnaars van de wedstrijd ontwikkelden digitale oplossingen om de dienstverlening in de gezondheidszorg te verbeteren, het leven van arbeiders van een lokale steengroeve te verbeteren en het bewustzijn over online veiligheid en cyberbeveiliging te vergroten.

Van de DigiTruck-afgestudeerden wordt verwacht dat ze het aantal inschrijvingen voor ICT-cursussen verhogen, digitaal ondernemerschap stimuleren en digitale toepassing in plattelandsgebieden stimuleren.

DigiTruck is een van de Skills on Wheels-programma's in het kader van Huawei's TECH4ALL-initiatief. Tegen het einde van 2024 had Skills on Wheels aan meer dan 110.000 mensen in 20 landen opleiding in digitale vaardigheden en bewustzijn van cyberbeveiliging gegeven, waarbij de mobiele klaslokalen meer dan 50.000 kilometer aflegden.
