On Friday, the French Embassy in Libya announced the launch of the Raqameyon project. This one-year project aims to support Libya’s digital transformation by disseminating digital skills and supporting local digital capacity-development programs.

In a statement, the French Embassy stated that the new project will contribute to the diversification of the Libyan job market, with a focus on the digital economy.

It is well known that the path of digital transformation consists of several stages in which all components of society participate.

It is a culture that is created by what the citizen learns and by keeping pace with technological developments in the business world and the methods of providing them by public or private service providers.

Therefore, the Embassy will implement the €700,000 Raqameyon project in partnership with the General Information Authority (GIA), the Ministry of Education, several Chambers of Commerce, local civil society organisations (CSO’s) and several public schools from different Libyan regions. The main activities of the project will include:

• Building the capacity of selected CSOs and private training companies to provide inclusive basic digital boot camps for public and private sector employees.

• Supporting the Ministry of Education to implement digital training in Libyan schools. This will include the design and implementation of a customized digital curriculum.

• Providing digital skills training for tech start-ups, entrepreneurs, and Small and medium-sized enterprises (SME’s) after assessing their needs.

• Training of existing digital professionals on in-demand and advanced tech topics such as AI, data science, and Power BI.

“The General Information Authority works to support digital transformation in Libya at several levels, including developing a comprehensive national strategy for digital transformation in the country.

This strategy will only be feasible to implement on the ground if the digital culture is spread in the educational and work environments, the capabilities of public and private sector employees are raised, and the level of training provided to young people interested in technology is improved in Libya. “The Raqameyon project will contribute to enhancing our future vision and is considered a positive step in achieving our goals.” Said Abdul Basit Al-Baour – Chairman of the General Information Authority in Libya.

On his part, Mostafa Mihraje, the French Ambassador to Libya, said, “the world is facing increasingly complex and interconnected challenges. New digital technologies are among them. The synergies we have built with our Libyan partners have allowed us to accelerate digitalization efforts, which in turn supports economic growth, creates more jobs, and allows for better use of resources.”

“France is honoured to continue supporting Libya’s digital transition through the Raqameyon project, which focuses on capacity building to equip Libyan youth with tools that will effectively harness their talents and help them become key drivers of Libya’s digital economy,” the Ambassador added.

Through the Raqameyon project, the French government and Expertise France are committed to continuing to work with Libyan partners to build digital skills and diversify the job market.
