[Audio] I am pleased to address you all today as we discuss our efforts to foster the growth of the tech industry in Ethiopia. Over the past five years, Ethiocoders has been dedicated to creating a platform that enables young Ethiopians to participate in the global digital economy. We firmly believe that technology holds immense potential to revolutionize lives and propel economic growth, and it is our mission to bring this vision to life. Through our initiative, we strive to offer training and employment opportunities for young Ethiopians in the tech sector, while also contributing to the establishment of a smart city in Addis Ababa. Today, I will present an update on our accomplishments thus far and outline our plans for the future..

[Audio] The world has witnessed numerous technological advancements over the years, leading to the emergence of various digital platforms. One such platform is the internet, which has revolutionized the way we communicate, access information, and conduct business. The widespread adoption of the internet has given rise to e-commerce, social media, and online education, among other things. However, with the increasing reliance on technology, concerns about data privacy and security have become more pressing. As a result, there is a growing need for individuals who can develop innovative solutions to address these challenges. This requires a strong foundation in computer science and programming skills, which is where coding comes in. Coding is not only essential for creating software applications but also for understanding how technology works and identifying potential vulnerabilities. In today's digital age, having a solid grasp of coding concepts is crucial for making informed decisions and staying ahead in the tech industry..

[Audio] The Ethiopian government has invested heavily in the development of its information technology sector, with a focus on creating a robust digital infrastructure. Five million IT coders have driven this growth, leveraging their skills to attract foreign investment and create jobs. Their expertise has enabled the government to implement various initiatives aimed at promoting innovation and entrepreneurship. As a result, Ethiopia has become a hub for tech-related activities, with many international companies setting up operations there. This has boosted the economy and created opportunities for young Ethiopians to pursue careers in the field. With its growing pool of skilled IT professionals, the country is well-positioned to continue its rapid progress in the tech industry..

[Audio] The Ethiopian government has set a target of having five million digital coders by 2026 through a collaboration between Ethiopia and the United Arab Emirates..

[Audio] This program aims to equip young people with digital literacy skills relevant to our economy, offer new career prospects, facilitate technological modernization in our country, and tackle the issue of unemployment..

[Audio] In today's rapidly changing world, technology is constantly evolving and shaping the way we work. The demand for skilled individuals continues to rise, making it essential for us to adapt to these changes in order to stay relevant in the job market. Ethio Coders provides comprehensive coding classes for individuals entering the world of technology with confidence and competence. Our curriculum covers a range of topics, from basic coding techniques to advanced programming languages, allowing our students to acquire a diverse set of skills aligned with the needs of the current job market. Hands-on learning and practical experience equip our students to handle the challenges of the ever-evolving technology landscape. Our partnership with Digital Innovation gives our students access to the latest tools and resources, providing a competitive advantage in the job market. Students also work on real-life projects, gaining valuable experience and building a strong portfolio for future employment opportunities. We are committed to seeing our students succeed, with a 100% placement rate of our graduates. At Ethio Coders, we empower our students with the necessary skills and knowledge to thrive in the technology industry.

The three main components of the program are the web programming initiative, the android programming initiative, and the data science initiative. These initiatives have been established to support the development of coding skills among young people, and to encourage them to pursue careers in technology and innovation..

[Audio] The Ethiopian government has been implementing its six-year development plan since it was launched. During this period, from six to eight months after the project started, an online survey indicated that the project was being implemented by one person at a time, with no coordination between them. The project lacked proper planning, and there was no clear timeline for its implementation and completion. In some cases, projects were duplicated, and resources were wasted. However, current and future times suggest that technology can be used to improve the implementation of projects..

[Audio] The main objective of this project is to develop a system that can predict the likelihood of a person being infected with HIV based on their medical history, age, gender, and other relevant factors. The system will be trained using data from various sources including hospitals, clinics, and research institutions. The proposed system will utilize machine learning algorithms to analyze the data and identify patterns that are indicative of an increased risk of infection. This will enable healthcare professionals to provide targeted interventions and improve patient outcomes. The system will also incorporate natural language processing techniques to extract relevant information from unstructured clinical notes and reports. This will allow for more accurate analysis and better decision-making by healthcare providers. The proposed system has several advantages over traditional methods of predicting HIV infection risk. Firstly, it can process large amounts of data quickly and efficiently, reducing the time required for analysis. Secondly, it can identify subtle patterns in the data that may not be apparent to human analysts. Thirdly, it can provide personalized recommendations to patients based on their individual characteristics. However, there are some challenges associated with developing such a system. One major challenge is the availability of high-quality training data. Another challenge is the need for careful consideration of bias in the data and algorithms used. Furthermore, ensuring the privacy and security of sensitive patient data is crucial. To address these challenges, we propose the following solutions: (1) collecting and curating high-quality training data through partnerships with reputable institutions; (2) implementing robust bias mitigation strategies during data preprocessing and algorithm development; and (3) employing advanced encryption techniques to protect patient confidentiality. In conclusion, the proposed system has the potential to revolutionize the way HIV infection risk is predicted and managed. With its ability to analyze vast amounts of data, identify subtle patterns, and provide personalized recommendations, it can significantly improve patient outcomes and reduce the burden of HIV/AIDS on healthcare systems worldwide. Therefore, we believe that investing in this project is essential for advancing our understanding of HIV infection risk prediction and improving healthcare delivery. We look forward to collaborating with experts in the field to bring this innovative solution to life."
