Graduates have been called to apply the skills and knowledge gained in higher education to enhance their professional capabilities and contribute to economic growth.<\/p>\n
Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, in a speech delivered on his behalf by Chief of Staff Joseph Busiega during Pwani University\u2019s 12th graduation ceremony, noted government\u2019s efforts to align youth empowerment strategies with job market demands.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe world is a continuous learning curve, so be prepared for joy and frustration along your career and life path. Collaboration is a key to your success in an interconnected global space. One of the greatest lessons you have learned, particularly from the power of teamwork in your studies, is that each and every voice matters. Diversity and inclusion spark creativity and innovation,\u201d Mudavadi noted.<\/p>\n
He encouraged graduates to approach challenges in the global arena with resilience, emphasizing the need to adapt to shifts such as climate change, security concerns, demographic transitions, and technological advancements.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese global challenges and opportunities have an impact on Kenya\u2019s economic and social transformation journey, which is anchored on the Government\u2019s Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda and Vision 2030.\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
Mudavadi called for a balanced perspective on youth empowerment, urging stakeholders to view the youth as assets to attract industrial investments rather than as a liability. He underscored education\u2019s role as a catalyst for change, fostering the skills needed to navigate challenges and opportunities.<\/p>\n
The Prime CS also appealed to stakeholders to actively engage in forums shaping government policies, particularly the university funding model, to ensure the sector\u2019s sustainability and progress.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have an opportunity to make a difference in building public consensus on Government priorities, including the higher university funding model and how to improve the financial and operational viability of universities. Together, we can make Kenya and the world a better place for all of us,\u201d he appealed.<\/p>\n
Mudavadi lauded the 1,714 candidates who have successfully completed their studies in diverse fields at the university, 51 of whom attained post-graduate qualifications.<\/p>\n
