OPINION | The future of education and leadership in Africa is bright, but it will require ongoing investment and innovation to achieve the full potential of the continent.

t the recent Trialogue Business in Society conference, I spoke about driving transformation in Africa through education and leadership.

Africa has the youngest population in the world, but the continent’s level of education and training lies far below the global average. The time has come for us as Africans to rescue Africa by occupying the driver seat of our future. To do that, we must recognise education and leadership as some of the low-hanging fruits requiring urgent attention and action.Education is the foundation of any successful society. It empowers individuals with the skills and knowledge needed to contribute to their communities, build businesses, and drive economic growth.

It is noteworthy that African governments are rising to the challenge. For instance, Rwanda has a national curriculum focused on developing critical thinking, problem-solving and entrepreneurial skills. It is not surprising then that Rwanda’s literacy rate is higher than what is observable across sub-Saharan Africa. Rwanda is also ranked as one of the least corrupt countries in Africa.
