Providing youth with 21st century skills related to Drone technology and data analysis, thereby improving their employability and entrepreneurial mindset.
The African Drone and Data Academy (ADDA) aims to be a center of excellence that will equip African youth with necessary 21st-century skills while strengthening the drone ecosystem for more effective humanitarian and development response.
The ADDA course, developed by Virginia Tech (USA) in partnership with Malawi University of Science and Technology, combines theoretical and practical methodologies in making, testing, and flying drones.
The curriculum allows young people to learn how to construct and pilot drones, integrate them into a supply chain system, and analyze drone data. It follows UNICEF’s ‘Drones and Data for Good’ vision, focusing on the potential of technology to positively impact youth.
