Fellow moderates Center for a Re-imagined Africa’s Public Sector Symposium with African Leadership University
Fellow Solange Kalema (Rwanda, 2017) recently moderated the Public Sector Symposium, organized by The African Leadership University through the Center for a Re-imagined Africa. Held on July 25, 2024 with the theme “Government Entrepreneurship: Building Africa’s Most Important Products”, the Public Sector Symposium convened industry stakeholders and experts to share insights, best practices and case studies on leveraging leadership, digital technology, and public trust to deliver products that improve the lives of African citizens through government services.
“My key takeaway was the concept of the trust economy and the realization that Africa must move beyond reliance on natural resources,” Solange shared in a recent post. “Instead, we need to focus on building capacities, investing in human capital, especially in developing advanced technology skills, and embracing innovation to strengthen our economies.”
Solange is a business analyst for the Rwanda Information Society Authority (RISA) who specializes in data analytics, agile planning and software development, scrum, requirement engineering, and product and service development. She was recently admitted into the entrepreneurship and product innovation program at One League, a global education institution that seeks to equip high-potential changemakers from across the world with an affordable or free ivy league-based curriculum.
