Within a few decades, this demographic dividend will increase the size of Africa&#8217;s workforce to more than a billion people, making it the largest in the world. However, the gap between the number of work seekers and the number of jobs available today is significant and requires deeper, more integrated solutions. Further, the skills required in today&#8217;s labor market may not be the skills required tomorrow.<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\nAt the same time, the proliferation of data, advances in data science and technological innovation offer tremendous opportunity. Across the continent, initiatives focused on building digital skills, jobs, and industries of the future are well underway.<\/div>\n<div>\nAs a way to capitalize on the rich innovation in data science across the continent, the Rockefeller Foundation and the Dalberg Group hosted the &#8216;Data Science for Improved Labor Markets in Africa&#8217; event in Kigali, Rwanda, on 12-13 May 2019. The event preceded the Transform Africa Summit, which brings together leading policy makers and industry actors from across the continent and will focus on &#8216;boosting Africa&#8217;s Digital Economy&#8217;.<\/div>\n<div>\n&#8220;Greater access to data and advancements in data science hold the potential to allow to more deeply understand the systemic challenges that drive unemployment. However, translating these advancements into viable solutions and positive impact at scale requires collaboration at the intersection of technologists, policy makers, industry, and civil society&#8221;, said Robin Miller, Partner and Global Digital Lead at Dalberg Advisors. &#8220;We are pleased to be partnering with the Rockefeller Foundation because we share the vision of not only advancing data science capacity to build digital solutions but, more importantly, bringing together the constellation of actors, influencers, and decisions-makers who will co-design these solutions, re-envision, and build the labor markets of the future.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div>\nThe Data Science for Labor Markets event brought together a distinctly curated group of 27 policy-makers, data scientists, funders, researchers, and industry actors from more than a dozen countries in order to build and enhance existing data science initiatives that tackle the deep systematic labor market challenges in Africa. The methodology of the two-day event included prototyping and pressure testing enhancements to existing solutions, facilitating connections that will position solutions for expansion and scale, and defining opportunities for broader and deeper cross-sectoral collaborations.<\/div>\n<div>\n&#8220;Creating, testing, and integrating impactful data-driven solutions requires collaboration across government, the private sector, and civil society. We believe that data and technology hold the key to solving the world&#8217;s most challenging issues, including those facing Africa&#8217;s labor market,&#8221; said Zia Khan, Vice President of Innovation at The Rockefeller Foundation. &#8220;We are excited to work alongside Dalberg to provide an opportunity for data scientists and field experts to work together to craft solutions that address deep, underlying causes of problems-and ultimately, to deliver real results.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><strong>About Rockefeller Foundation<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><b><br \/>\n<\/b>The Rockefeller Foundation&#8217;s mission-unchanged since 1913-is to promote the well-being of humanity throughout the world.
