TOR WS 3.1 The Future of Education in Cape Verde

Cabo Verde needs an educational system that is capable of producing creative and innovative entrepreneurs, in addition to engineers, scientists, technologists, planners, contract negotiation specialists, professionals with university degrees, and managers who express themselves fluently in English and who can be leaders in implementing the transformation agenda. Such a system of education should put an emphasis on rigor and quality as early as pre-school and be relevant, not only to the country’s current reality, but also its future agenda, whose aim is to turn Cabo Verde into an international center for high value added service delivery. Materialization of the transformation agenda requires the emergence of new economic sectors that need highly qualified people, particularly in the areas of knowledge.
