Key takeaways from the recent capacity building workshop programme hosted by Mutare-based Chenhaka Trust in collaboration with the Ministry of Sport, Recreation, Arts and Culture and the National Arts Council of Zimbabwe: 1. It is important for creatives and event organizers to invite members of the parliamentary portfolio to their events. 2. Understanding parts of the country’s constitution that affect your sector the most can be the difference between successful sector players and everyone else. 3. It is crucial to know who speaks for your sector in parliament and policy makers who decide on the policies that directly affect your sector. The Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Sport, Recreation, Arts and Culture, Mr. Moyo, also urged creatives to collaborate as much as they can, within the sector and outside.

Did you know? Urban areas in Africa are expected to host half of the continent’s population by 2030. In response to this rapid urbanization, the African Union Commission established the Africa Urban Forum – a new platform for promoting sustainable development in African human settlements. From 4 to 6 September, Ethiopia will be the host of the first Forum. The Forum will feature roundtables, plenary sessions, panel discussions, dialogues, side events, assemblies, and exhibitions to explore how African cities can fulfil their potential as centres of hope, growth, and prosperity. Deliberations at the Forum will be guided by the Harmonized Regional Framework for Implementing the New Urban Agenda in Africa, a tool developed by UN-Habitat, the African Union Commission, and UNECA. Join us in shaping the future of urbanization in Africa! Register here: https://loom.ly/f4kWInw #AUF2024 #UrbanDevelopment #SustainableCities #Agenda2063 #Urbanization

Had a lot of fun talking about the work Giga does to #ConnectEverySchool at United Nations Economic Commission for Africa event. It was great to connect with esteemed colleagues Emma Theofelus, Ben Roberts, Dobrina Gogova-Poirier, Frank van Cappelle, Ibrahima Guimba-Saidou and engage on the topic of school connectivity. A few takeaways: - 'The future is young, the future is female, the future is African.' - 'By 2030,?42% of?global?youth will?be in Africa.' - '#Technology aids education, it does not replace it.' - 'Bringing #connectivity to every school requires investments in the first mile, as well as students and teachers asking for access'. - 'Investing in connectivity goes beyond just learning – it also benefits entire communities and countries.' We live in exciting times where technology can help us solve problems at scale.?There are so many opportunities ahead of us. ??
