NAIROBI, July 26 (Xinhua) -- The fifth edition of Africa Tech Challenge (ATC) funded by Chinese firm AVIC International was launched on Thursday in Nairobi to boost technical skills upgrade among the youth.

Kevit Desai, the Principal Secretary in the State Department of Technical, Vocational and Education Training (TVET), said the launch of China funded competition to advance technical skills among the youth lies at the heart of Kenya's industrialization agenda.

"This year's Africa Tech Challenge will provide youth with practical skills that are required in the 21st century job market," he added.

Desai said that Kenya has developed a robust policy and regulatory framework to facilitate involvement of industry in development of skills that are required to achieve the Big Four Agenda on manufacturing.

"We value linkages between the public sector and industry to build the capacity of mid-level technicians whose role is crucial to achieve some of the key Big Four agenda items like manufacturing, affordable housing and food security," Desai remarked.

The fifth edition of Africa Tech Challenge aims to provide youth in five African countries including Kenya, Gabon, Ghana, Zambia and Ivory Coast with advanced training in computerized numerical machine techniques and mechatronics engineering.
