Maureen Mwaniki, Director of Public Affairs and Policy at Huawei Kenya, said the shortage of engineers in Africa, and the rest of the world, was a cause for concern.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere has been declining interest in the profession from the youth, with the enrolment of young people, especially women, in the profession dwindling.<\/p>\n<p>The continent is facing a situation where there are a lot of older, more experienced engineers, but not enough young candidate engineers entering the profession. Our ability to sustain the profession lies in the number of young people choosing engineering as a career,\u201d Eng. Mwaniki said.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17640\" src=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Eng.-Maureen-Mwaniki-Director-of-Public-Affairs-and-Policy-at-Huawei-Kenya-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1233\" height=\"823\" srcset=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Eng.-Maureen-Mwaniki-Director-of-Public-Affairs-and-Policy-at-Huawei-Kenya-1.jpg 1233w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Eng.-Maureen-Mwaniki-Director-of-Public-Affairs-and-Policy-at-Huawei-Kenya-1-250x167.jpg 250w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Eng.-Maureen-Mwaniki-Director-of-Public-Affairs-and-Policy-at-Huawei-Kenya-1-1000x667.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Eng.-Maureen-Mwaniki-Director-of-Public-Affairs-and-Policy-at-Huawei-Kenya-1-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Eng.-Maureen-Mwaniki-Director-of-Public-Affairs-and-Policy-at-Huawei-Kenya-1-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1233px) 100vw, 1233px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>She noted that Africa\u2019s future depends on its youth embracing Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education, particularly engineering, which lies at the core of solving the continent\u2019s most pressing challenges.<br \/>\n\u201cThe growing need for infrastructure, clean energy, and climate resilience offers a unique opportunity for engineers to shape Africa\u2019s path toward sustainable growth. But more efforts need to be put in attracting younger people, especially women, to the profession,\u201d Eng. Mwaniki said.<br \/>\n&#8220;Women, in particular, need to step out of their comfort zones and grab the opportunities that are offered by companies such as Huawei. Programs like Seeds for the future, ICT Competition, Women Collaboration programs with our partners, etc will help expose the Women Engineers to advanced technologies that can enable them to create solutions for their country.&#8221;<br \/>\nThe Africa Engineering Week provides a platform for government representatives, industry leaders, and academia to discuss policy frameworks and partnerships that can accelerate engineering education and innovation on the continent.<br \/>\nCelebrated across the region every year, UNESCO Africa Engineering Week promotes engineering solutions and awareness among students, society and policy-makers. It aims to inspire and educate youth and the public on the vital role of engineers in societies.<br \/>\nThis year&#8217;s edition is hosted by the Ordem dos Engenheiros de Angola in Luanda, Angola, and organised jointly by UNESCO, the World Federation of Engineering Organizations (WFEO) and the Federation of African Engineering Organis.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17639\" src=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Coss-section-of-Women-in-Tech-the-who-attended-the-10th-Annual-UNESCO-Africa-Engineering-Week-in-Nairobi-Kenya.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1365\" height=\"653\" srcset=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Coss-section-of-Women-in-Tech-the-who-attended-the-10th-Annual-UNESCO-Africa-Engineering-Week-in-Nairobi-Kenya.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Coss-section-of-Women-in-Tech-the-who-attended-the-10th-Annual-UNESCO-Africa-Engineering-Week-in-Nairobi-Kenya-250x120.jpg 250w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Coss-section-of-Women-in-Tech-the-who-attended-the-10th-Annual-UNESCO-Africa-Engineering-Week-in-Nairobi-Kenya-1000x478.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Coss-section-of-Women-in-Tech-the-who-attended-the-10th-Annual-UNESCO-Africa-Engineering-Week-in-Nairobi-Kenya-768x367.jpg 768w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Coss-section-of-Women-in-Tech-the-who-attended-the-10th-Annual-UNESCO-Africa-Engineering-Week-in-Nairobi-Kenya-600x287.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1365px) 100vw, 1365px\" \/><br \/>\nIt will include the 8th Africa Engineering Conference, the 7th Africa Women Engineers Forum, the Young Engineers Forum and a Business-to-Business (B2B) session.
