Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India is home to nearly a fifth of the global population, yet it contributes less than 4% of global GDP. The asymmetry between Gross and Per Capita GDP itself speaks volumes about the failure of the Indian State to ensure an equitable share of opportunities and provide structural enablement across the population. Human Capital deficiencies, such as skill-gaps viz-a-viz emerging technologies, low economic empowerment and rampant inequity douse the aspirations of the youth. In this milieu, digital technologies provide both challenges and opportunities for capacity building and upward social and economic mobility. India’s transformation to an upper-middle-income economy depends on our ability to effectively leverage the four E’s of development, namely Education, Electronics, Enterprise and Empowerment. Transformational Technologies introduces readers to a diverse range of disruptive technologies and highlights the enormous scope for ideation and action in enterprise, governance and academics.

Book Feasibility study for application of digital technologies for improved traceability and transparency along the agrifood value chains

Download or read book Feasibility study for application of digital technologies for improved traceability and transparency along the agrifood value chains written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2023-09-18 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Agrifood value chains of small and medium-sized producers in the Near East and North Africa region have the potential to generate more value through improved access to high-value markets. Limited logistics capacity in the region, coupled with lack of access to continuous cold chain, has resulted in weak supply chain management, high level of food loss, lack of compliance with food quality and safety standards; information asymmetries; and unfair value distribution, affecting income and livelihood of small and medium-sized producers. Improving traceability and transparency along the agrifood value chains can help building consumers' trust by better tracking the origin of food, identifying, detecting and mitigating the impact of food safety and quality issues in a timely manner and enhancing price visibility and information sharing on value distribution in each stage of the value chain. Digital technologies can play an important role in enhancing traceability and transparency by ensuring the collection of comprehensive, consistent and reliable data along the supply chain, real-time tracking, easy aggregation, integration, analysis and sharing of data. Despite the recognition of game changing potential, few studies have analysed the feasibility of application of these technologies to improve traceability and transparency of value chains, from farm-gate to market, in the region. To fill this gap in knowledge, this study was conducted to understand the digital landscape in the region, examine barriers and incentives for uptake of these technologies and to propose solutions that can improve the adoption rate and sustainability of digital technologies for small and medium-sized producers.”

Book Contributions of Africa   s Indigenous Knowledge to the Wave of Digital Technology  Decolonial Perspectives

Download or read book Contributions of Africa s Indigenous Knowledge to the Wave of Digital Technology Decolonial Perspectives written by Niyitunga, Eric Blanco and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa's contributions to global technological advancements are often overlooked, with many scholars claiming that the continent has yet to contribute significantly to digital technology. This misconception stems from a need for more understanding and recognition of Africa's indigenous knowledge and its role in shaping the modern world. The education curriculum inherited from colonialism must differentiate Africa's values and culture from Western ideals, leading to a devaluation of Africa's mineral wealth in technological advancements. Additionally, the impact of historical events such as the Atlantic slave trade and colonialism on Africa's indigenous knowledge remains largely unexplored, further contributing to the misunderstanding of Africa's technological contributions. Contributions of Africa's Indigenous Knowledge to the Wave of Digital Technology: Decolonial Perspectives offers a comprehensive exploration of Africa's indigenous knowledge and its crucial role in the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR). By taking a decolonial perspective and examining the literature on African Studies, the book aims to shed light on Africa's significant contributions to digital technology. Through a qualitative research design and an exploratory approach, the book will collect and analyze data from secondary sources to showcase Africa's rich technological advancements and history of innovations.
