eLearning Africa 2015: call for proposals

Learning NewseLearning Africa

eLearning Africa 2015 is looking for the stories, experiences, research, thinking and expertise that make up the complex but thrilling picture of ICT for development, education and training in Africa today.

Above all others, Africa’s human capital is its most valuable resource. Individuals are the driving force behind development, innovation and economic growth on the Continent, and access to quality education and ICTs enrich the potential of individuals to empower communities. At eLearning Africa 2015, we will be asking how ICTs can be used today to enhance knowledge, expertise and abilities relevant for tomorrow. How can quality education be provided, designed, implemented, supported and certified for Africa’s youth and Africa’s workforce?

The 10th eLearning Africa will bring together decision makers and practitioners from the education, business and government sectors to discuss, share and act on all themes surrounding access, openness, digital literacy, culture, pedagogy, sustainability, best practices and more.

The conference is the key networking event for ICT-enhanced education and training in Africa. As the largest annual conference of its kind, the three-day event is a must for those wanting to develop multinational and cross-industry contacts and partnerships whilst enhancing their knowledge, expertise and abilities.

In 2015, eLearning Africa is being hosted by the Ethiopian Ministry of Communication and Information Technology (CIT) at The African Union Headquarters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, May 20-22.
