The conference is known for its ability to convene a highly relevant audience and provide a platform for meaningful dialogue and collaboration.
The main theme of eLearning Africa 2025, “Re-imagining Education and Human Capital Development for Africa’s Future Prosperity,” highlights the urgent need to transform the educational landscape and develop a skilled workforce capable of driving sustainable growth and innovation across the continent.
The conference will delve into critical topics such as the integration of artificial intelligence (AI), digital literacy, green skills, and climate change education into curricula, aiming to create a resilient and future-ready workforce.
Key sessions will explore how Africa can leverage the Fourth Industrial Revolution, focusing on the strategic integration of AI in education, policy innovations, public-private partnerships, and technological advances that enhance educational access and quality.
