ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s Ministry of Federal Education is set to launch a landmark project aimed at equipping school children with advanced skills in emerging technologies.
Under the project, “Emerging Technology Centers” will be established in 350 schools across Islamabad, Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Gilgit Baltistan regions.
The program is part of the government’s strategic planning to strengthen its initiative to make Pakistan a global IT destination.
The centres will serve as a catalyst for introducing school children to emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and data analytics, preparing them for the increasingly digital landscape they will encounter in their future endeavours.
The project is aimed at developing skills and capacity in the IT sector, preparing students for a digital future, enhancing Pakistan’s export and capability in the IT sector, and making Pakistan a global IT destination.
