Skills Virtual Fair: South-south and triangular cooperation

Skills Virtual Fair: South-south and triangular cooperation

The Skills Virtual Fair aims to identify innovative solutions, through South-South and triangular cooperation, for specific skills development challenges, now exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. The expected outcome of this initiative is to establish partnerships between participants, as well as peer learning opportunities, related to the following aspects of skills development and lifelong learning:

  • Quality apprenticeships,
  • Skills need anticipation,
  • Digital skills & digital transformation
  • Skills in Agriculture

Given the travel and meeting restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Skills Fair will happen virtually on vFairs platform with Augmented Reality (AR). Virtual fairs and conferencing solutions provide a virtual infrastructure where on-line summits/fairs can be organised with exhibition booths (Market Fairs, Knowledge Fairs,) for large audiences.

MAHE TVET Process
The UNESCO Regional Office for Eastern Africa in Nairobi coordinates the Better Education for Africa’s Rise project (BEAR II) and convenes the TVET Mahe Process, an initiative geared towards strengthening TVET in the 13 member states.

BEAR II is a joint effort between UNESCO and the Republic of Korea to improve the TVET systems of five beneficiary countries in Eastern Africa.

Mahe process advocates for the improvement of TVET across East Africa through sharing of information and working towards regional harmonisation and mutualization.

The need for integrating ICT is very critical in the post-COVID-19 world that has disrupted TVET activities. This brings about the need for a TVET regional platform for member states to collaborate, exchange information and support in harmonisation and mutualization activities under the Mahe Process.
