It will also equip policymakers with a set of diagnostics tools to appraise a country\u2019s readiness to tackle the opportunities and challenges stemming from digitalisation of manufacturing.<br \/>\nLike previous technological revolutions, the 4IR has been opening windows of opportunities for driving inclusive and sustainable industrial development across countries and regions. Digital technologies are also seen as critical in addressing global development challenges, such as climate change within the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Agenda 2030 (UNIDO IDR, 2022).<br \/>\nThis training programme is expected to fill a gap regarding intelligence on practical approaches to policymaking, methodologies and empirically tested role models to inform digitalisation agendas and industrialisation efforts articulated with long-term national development strategies. The programme will equally provide policymakers with a focused and in-depth battery of indicators which are relevant for the digital industrial revolution and digital industrial policy.<br \/>\nTrainees will be provided with three main references, namely: the UNIDO Industrial Development Report; Digital Readiness Diagnostic Tool \u2013 Stairway to industry 4.0 and; Advanced Digital Tool \u2013 Digital Technology Competitiveness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mauritius\">Mauritius<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mauritius.
