The Ministry of Digital Transformation and Administrative Modernisation has signed a memorandum of understanding with US company Cybastion, aimed at strengthening the protection of digital systems and developing technological infrastructure in Mauritania.
The partnership, signed by Digital Transformation Minister Ahmed Salem Ould Bedde and a representative of the company, includes support for digitising public services and making them easier for citizens to access, especially in remote areas, as well as training young Mauritanians in technical fields.
The agreement includes the launch of training programmes under the "Africa Digi-Empower" initiative, allowing beneficiaries to acquire digital skills and obtain international certifications through the Cisco Networking Academy.
