The National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) is hosting a Creativity and Innovation Challenge to mark its #NITDAat20 Anniversary and commemorate this year’s World Creativity and Innovation Day, which is today April, 21.

 

Nigeria’s Honourable Minister of Communications and Digital Economy,  Dr. Isa Ali Pantami, among others, will be present at the event, which has as theme, “Inspiring Creativity and Innovation in Nigerian Digital Economy”.

The United Nations designated 21 April as World Creativity and Innovation Day to raise the awareness of the role of creativity and innovation in all aspects of human development.

 

“There may be no universal understanding of creativity. The concept is open to interpretation from artistic expression to problem-solving in the context of economic, social and sustainable development.

“…After a year of pandemic-induced lockdowns, there couldn’t be a better time to appreciate the creative economy.

“The United Nations is doing just this as it marks 2021 as the International Year of the Creative Economy for Sustainable Development, ” says the UN.
