The engagement also prioritises raising the status of TVET through industry recognition and clearer career progression pathways, drawing from reforms under skills england. 


Dr. Alausa, as a member of the global partnership for education board, urges continued UK support for the GPE 2026–2030 replenishment campaign, which Nigeria will co-host with italy during the UN general assembly in september 2026,
