African countries need strong educational support through training in programs that meet the needs of modern industry, as the lack of an educated workforce with the skills needed for industrial development is holding the continent back, coordinator of Russian nuclear education programs in Africa said.
Russian educational standards can ensure the development of technological sovereignty in the
energy sector of BRICS and African countries,
coordinator of Russian nuclear education programs in Africa Masamba Kah told
Sputnik Africa."You cannot have technology and the framework without the trained people, none of that is possible. So, it starts with education, so what Russia has to offer to BRICS communities, of course, is long, traditional, sustainable, safe educational standards that make sure these industries function sustainably in the framework of global economy," he explained.
Russia's system of educational and industrial partnerships, which aligns universities with industry needs to train locals to the highest technical standards, bolsters African
industrial sovereignty, Kah pointed out on the sidelines of the "Qualifications for Technological Solutions of the Country" conference held in Addis Ababa this week.
"A good example of that is state corporation Rosatom which works together with a group or network of universities that specialize in all aspects or applications of nuclear technology, where universities prepare students to do research and development for the industry," the speaker noted.
Once the partnership between universities and companies becomes widespread in Africa, the continent will achieve technological sovereignty, he emphasized.
