Overview
18 July 2023
This two-day course will be facilitated by world renowned experts in Digital Transformation (DT) and Sustainable Development (SD) and has been designed to introduce a variety of fundamental perspectives on DT and SD to build future women leaders in public and private sectors who are able to understand and deal with future challenges. With the launch of the 2030 Agenda for SD and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the path to global development needs to be more collaborative than ever. How can technology contribute and enhance SD is the main issue which will be addressed during this course. Digital technologies in particular have spread rapidly (such as the Internet, mobile phones, etc) and therefore the impact of digital technologies on SD is very important aspect of the overall success of DT initiatives. Based on the assumption that technology must be widely used and freely accessible to have an impact, knowledge systems and knowledge economy seem to open up new and varied avenues to be explored in the direction of sustainability.
In addition, future leaders and decision makers will learn effective techniques and approaches to make better choices within the context of their organisations, gather information and assess alternatives; they will also be able to make decisions and develop ways to implement those decisions to their organisation’s effective transformation. Participants will acquire comprehensive knowledge and practical experience about DT approaches in alignment with the local needs and capabilities. It is a great opportunity for participants to gain good knowledge and understanding of SD and gain background information on SDGs. The course will provide new perspectives sand some conclusions and recommendations for future leaders to explore some of the opportunities from the digital revolution and how these opportunities can be improved to better serve their goals.
