Generation Z: Educating the youth, one app at time

HUAWEI's AppGallery can keep the youth of South Africa well-informed and prepared with some of the following apps


As the years go by, it becomes apparent to us that one generation slowly takes the back seat, whilst another becomes prominent– introducing Generation Z, South Africa’s next generation of leaders, creatives and entrepreneurs.

It is no secret that Generation Z will give the rest of the World a run for their money through their agile mindset and innovative creations. It is, however, our job to make sure we equip this generation with all the necessary skills they will need to take the World by storm.

Some of the ways we can assist this generation is by providing educational platforms to them – especially in an age where technology is pivotal in our lives. With that being said, here are a few of the educational applications HUAWEI AppGallery can provide to keep the youth of South Africa well-informed and to prepare them for their futures.
