KIGALI, Rwanda<\/span><\/span>, Oct. 6, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Huawei and Rwanda’s<\/span> Ministry of Education announced the completion of the first phase of the Smart Education Project and the launch of a new Huawei TECH4ALL<\/a> DigiTruck project at Kagarama High School in Kigali<\/span> on October 3<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The two projects represent Rwanda’s<\/span> commitment to the digital transformation of the education sector and upskilling of the Rwandan population with digital skills.<\/p>\n

“Today’s joint celebration is more than just a ceremonial occasion; it is a testament to Rwanda’s<\/span> unwavering commitment to inclusive, technology-driven education. These initiatives strengthen international cooperation, promote digital equity, and advance sustainable national development,” said Joseph Nsengimana<\/span>, Minister of Education in Rwanda<\/span><\/p>\n

The Smart Education Project has connected 1,500 schools to high-speed Internet, deployed two cutting-edge data centers, and laid the foundation for a dedicated education network to support digital teaching and learning nationwide.<\/p>\n

Aligned with Rwanda’s<\/span> Vision 2050 and the National Strategy for Transformation, this project is designed to support Rwanda’s<\/span> transition into a globally competitive knowledge-based economy. In the near future, the benefits of this project will be expanded to further bridge the digital divide and continue to empower teachers and students with cutting-edge technology.<\/p>\n

The milestone means nearly 1.5 million students across Rwanda<\/span> \u2014 in Kigali<\/span> as well as remote, rural communities \u2014 can now access high-quality education resources on an equal basis.<\/p>\n

“A student in Kigali<\/span> can now share knowledge remotely with peers in Rusizi. These are the real impacts of digital inclusion: bridging distances, breaking barriers, and giving every child the chance to dream bigger,” said Jin Jiqing, Managing Director of Huawei Technologies Rwanda.<\/p>\n

Alongside the Smart Education Project, Huawei and the government’s Ministry of ICT & Innovation and Ministry of Education have launched the DigiTruck project to deliver free and tailored digital skills training to underserved communities, with a focus on out-of-school youth, girls, and farmers. Equipped with laptops, Internet access, and digital learning devices, the DigiTruck is a mobile, solar-powered classroom that can be driven to remote communities, with expert trainers on hand to provide training even in areas that lack Internet access or a power supply.<\/p>\n

“Initiatives like the DigiTruck represent more than technology, they are a gateway to opportunity, empowerment, and Rwanda’s<\/span> future as a knowledge-driven economy,” said Eraste Rurangwa, the Permanent Secretary of Ministry of ICT and Innovation in Rwanda<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Aligned with the NST2 goal of training 1 million citizens in digital skills, the DigiTruck will travel across all 30 districts of Rwanda<\/span> with the goal of training 5,000 Rwandans over a period of three years.  <\/p>\n

To date, Huawei TECH4ALL DigiTrucks have provided training for more than 17,000 people in 7 countries in digital skills such as using devices and office software, applying for jobs online, starting an online business, and coding and robotics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
