About us

The eLearning Africa News Portal disseminates information about rich learning opportunities in conjunction with technologies, such as computers, the Internet, mobile devices, radio and audiovisual media in Africa.

It is a hub for sharing ideas and best practices in the field of Information and Communication Technology as a tool for development (ICT4D) and education (ICT4E) across Africa. The idea behind the platform is to enhance knowledge, expertise and skills while also serving as a catalyst for the vibrant multinational community of practice in this field.

The portal is structured around the annual eLearning Africa conference, the premier pan-African networking event designed to connect ICT4D and ICT4E experts from all sectors and levels throughout Africa and beyond. The conferences take place in a different country each year, travelling the African Continent.

We encourage everyone interested in this field to contribute to the portal all year round.

Our Mission

Through its conferences, web portal and news service, eLearning Africa aspires to promote ICT-enhanced learning in Africa – wherever technology tools are practicable and offer real benefits over other educational instruments. The ultimate aim is to facilitate and accelerate Education for All, the Millennium Goal of the United Nations.
