South Africa’s Durban University of Technology (DUT) is teaming up with BRICS partners to supercharge its tech education programs and tackle youth unemployment. 🌍🛠️ The collaboration aims to create a future-ready workforce through cutting-edge digital training and innovation hubs.
Think of BRICS like a superhero squad for global development—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa pooling resources to fight economic challenges. DUT’s initiative focuses on AI, robotics, and big data training, with plans to launch a virtual learning platform accessible across BRICS countries.
“This isn’t just about degrees—it’s about creating job creators,” says a DUT spokesperson. 📈 With South Africa’s youth unemployment rate hovering near 60%, the program could be a game-changer for Gen-Z professionals eyeing careers in the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
Fun fact: Over 70% of BRICS members are investing heavily in digital education. Could this partnership become the blueprint for tech-driven workforce development worldwide? 💡
