The First edition of the Avishkaar National Robotics Competition in Nigeria held in collaboration with WAAQ Fusion Integrated Services marked a significant step in promoting Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics education in Nigeria.
The winners of the Avishkaar League 2024 and WAAQ Fusion STEM will compete in India in January 2025.
The event aimed to inspire students.
The competition featured 10 schools and focused on equipping students with skills in robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), and coding. The Avishkaar League 2024 theme, “The Rise of the Machines,” aimed to prepare young learners for a tech-driven future by integrating problem-solving and creativity into education.
“We want Nigerian students to be 21st-century compliant by exposing them to robotics and coding,” said Mrs Qudrah Jimoh, co-founder of WAAQ Fusion Integrated Services.
“This initiative is about developing solutions for global challenges while inspiring innovation in our youth. This competition is more than just an event.
“It’s a platform to inspire the next generation of problem-solvers and innovators who can shape the future of Nigeria and beyond,” said Jimoh.
