Education unlocks the potential of digital technologies.Education lays the foundations for digital skills - literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking - which are the basis for employability in the 21st century.
Education creates a skilled workforce contributing to economic growth and reducing gender gaps.Quality education develops foundational skills, 'soft' skills (increasingly essential in the labour market) and industry-specific technical skills (more innovative and sustainable).
