These values, according to him, can transform individuals into real \u2018citizens of the world\u2019 who are able to adapt and provide solutions to humanity\u2019s biggest challenges.<\/p>\n<p>The Minister remarked that, since joining ADI, students had acquired the necessary knowledge and skills so as to either align themselves with the industry\u2019s expectations and secure a job or further progress with their education.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs young adults,\u201d he underlined, \u201cgraduates not only have the power to develop their entrepreneurial skills and run a business but are also able to change the way we live.<\/p>\n<p>\u201d He thus appealed to them to be creative in their own ideas and redefine their approaches to problem management and solution.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Minister Bholah indicated that ADI wished to establish itself as the only Design Institution in the region that would cater for high level education, consultancy, and research in the field of design.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe creative industry,\u201d he stated, \u201cis an emerging sector which will gradually become a strong pillar of the economy through development of smart cities, and the advancement of new technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Reality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201d \u201cAs such, Government has allocated sufficient budget to the Academy, which is all set to be the only key active player for preparing our workforce in the field of creativity and design,\u201d he added. The Industrial Development Minister, moreover, reminded that Government was focused on promoting the local savoir-faire.<\/p>\n<p>As such, he called upon the young designers, particularly those who intended to become entrepreneurs, to make good use of all the facilities at their disposal so as to be active contributors of sustainable economic growth.<\/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.
