SciDevNet: African bank steps in to boost digital revolution

Submitted by admin on Sun, 04/11/2007 - 20:50.

The African Development Bank (AfDB) has unveiled a new science and technology policy with the primary objective of boosting training in digital technologies.

The policy was endorsed by African leaders, ministers and experts at the Connect Africa Summit held in Rwanda this week (29–30 October).

AfDB president Donald Kaberuka says the policy will prepare Africa for the challenges ahead, including the lack of trained personnel required to propel it into the digital age.
