Training African cyberstrategists: an imperative!
Without a generation of strategists trained to think cyberspace, Africa will remain a spectator of global digital power dynamics.
Power is a long-debated concept. Applied to cyberspace, it opens an unprecedented strategic window for Africa.

Power is no longer measured only in territory or armies, but in the ability to project influence in immaterial spaces. Cyberspace lowers some historical barriers to entry.
Africa has assets: a young population, rapid mobile adoption, a connected diaspora. These levers, poorly exploited today, can become major strategic assets.
Becoming a cyber power requires political will, industrial capacity and a doctrine. The window is open; it will not stay open indefinitely.

Without a generation of strategists trained to think cyberspace, Africa will remain a spectator of global digital power dynamics.

In an interconnected world where technology is a lever of power, Africa stands at a decisive turning point.

Transhumanism and AI carry implicit values. What response from African value systems?
