Today, 16 young Malawian youths are graduating from the African Drone and Data Academy. As part of their graduation ceremony, the graduates presented two high-tech projects that they conceptualized.
Cheers to 16 youths graduating from the @DroneAdda, which has, to date, equipped 347 African youths with 21st-century skills in drone, data, and entrepreneurship. The graduates showcased affordable and easy to adapt drones they built over the past five weeks.
