Ministry to formulate roadmap to face challenges of 4IR: Dipu Moni

Education Minister Dr Dipu Moni on Wednesday said that the government is planning to formulate a roadmap to face the challenges of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

“We will also take up a pilot programme soon to face the challenges of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, aiming to build skilled future generations for the country,” she added.

The Minister made the remarks after unveiling a magazine titled "Fourth Industrial Revolutions and Higher Education in Bangladesh" published by the Education Reporters' Association, Bangladesh (ERAB) at her ministry’s office at the secretariat.
