Information technology multinational IBM has partnered with the National Youth Development Agency (NYDA) in South Africa to bridge the digital divide for the South African youth by enhancing digital literacy and preparing them to actively succeed in the twenty-first century workplace with the essential skills for this disruptive era, IBM said on November 24. Faced with high youth unemployment rates in South Africa, and given that technology is transforming jobs, industries and entire economies, IBM and the NYDA will run a series of educational boot camps through NYDA's regional offices to digitally empower youth.
