Sanjeev Mansotra's Advances Skills Development Program of Africa

Sanjeev Mansotra has been working effortlessly and tirelessly towards the betterment of the African youth by taking several initiatives as part of a skills program to develop and enhance the skills of the youth and to prepare them to mark their identity in the world.

New trends and technologies bring new advancements in life and new things to learn, which ultimately offers us some unique knowledge and talent, by which we can upgrade our life.

Future development has enormous potential thanks to Africa's various cultures, terrain, and wealth of resources. However, maximizing this potential necessitates a strong and thorough approach to skill development. For economic growth, poverty reduction, and sustainable development, skills development is essential. Africa's young population offers a demographic advantage that can be taken advantage of by providing high-quality education and skill development.

Flexible skills in fields like information technology, renewable energy, and advanced manufacturing are necessary due to the changing nature of work, including automation, digitalization, and artificial intelligence.

According to Sanjeev Mansotra, education, and skills development are correlated with one another, as without education or knowledge skill development is not possible and skill development also requires knowledge to gain something or to learn any new skill.

By providing people with the practical skills needed for stable employment, advanced skills development programs can lower the rate of underemployment and unemployment. To support equitable and sustainable development, skills development can also address important societal issues including the need for medical and agricultural expertise. For skills development initiatives to be successful, cooperation between international organizations, private businesses, and educational institutions is essential.

Governments should establish regulations that support spending on education and training, and educational institutions should restructure their curricula to better meet the needs of the labor market and include real-world learning opportunities.

As Africa takes its place on the world stage, investing in the development of skills is not simply a choice; it is a requirement. Africa can unleash the potential of its people and promote sustainable development for future generations through tenacity, vision, and all-encompassing strategy. “African government in collaboration with international NGO must work uniformly with transparency and should make a significant investment in the skills program for the youth, which will benefit the growing youth to enhance the skills they have and helps them to get the relevant job opportunities, which will ultimately benefit the nation in terms of economic, social and cultural development”, asserts Sanjeev Mansotra, Planet One Group mentor.

Therefore, the need for a skill development program is essential and relevant to the growth of the youth of Africa in terms of employment opportunities, knowledge, creativity, etc.
