About this event

Schools have been closed for over two years now and many in Africa have been struggling to devise ways on how children can continue schooling while at home but all in vain. Platforms like WhatsApp, Zoom, Facebook, etc have been tried by many education institutions to reach out to their learners but all in vain because majority lacked equipment, technical knowhow, electricity, internet network, money to pay for internet costs, etc

During this event, speakers will discuss the following questions below to help education institutions in Africa understand what needed to be done to implement a sustainable eLearning program for their learners in regard to the existing challenges. 

(1) What do you need to effectively implement a sustainable E-Learning Program in Africa?

(2) What are the Challenges and Advantages of implementing a sustainable E-Learning Program in Africa?
