Introduction
As the voice of education in Africa and a key network of Education Ministries, the Association for the Development of Education in Africa (ADEA) plays a significant role in the education space as a convenor, knowledge creator, and forum for policy dialogue. ADEA sees its impact in African countries that are empowered to develop education and training systems that respond to their emergent needs and drive Africa’s sustainable socio-economic transformation. Two strategic pillars underpin the implementation of the ADEA Strategic Plan 2028-2022: (1) the Continental Education Platform and (2) the country-based Advisory and Execution Support Services. Both pillars are aligned to the African Union’s Continental Education Strategy for Africa 2016-2025 (CESA 16-25) and the Sustainable Development Goal No. 4 on Education (SDG4).

International Conference on Public Health in Africa (CPHIA 2021)
2021-12-16
Dear Students and Colleagues,
I have the pleasure of officially inviting you to participate in the 1st International Conference on Public Health in Africa (CPHIA 2021), hosted by the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) and African Union, taking place virtually 14-16 December 2021.
CPHIA 2021 comes at a critical time for the continent and the world. COVID-19 has strained health systems globally, and with limited access to vaccines in Africa, the pandemic has laid bare deep inequities in access to healthcare and scientific innovations. CPHIA aims to place public health at the center of the continent’s Agenda 2063 – the Africa we Want.
This three-day conference will bring together leading health professionals, researchers, public health experts and policymakers to discuss how we usher in a new era of strengthened scientific collaboration and innovation and to secure Africa’s future. There is an exciting line-up of speakers already confirmed:
You can register for this free event here and spread the word to those in your networks using social language found below my signature. For more information on the agenda, side events, abstract presentations and speakers please visit www.cphia2021.com.

CUGH Webinar: Protecting Health Workers in Conflict Zones
2021-12-02 13:00 - 14:00 UTC
Summary:
Violence against healthcare workers and facilities are tragically pervasive in modern conflicts. These are targeted attacks designed to ensure that the sick and injured cannot receive the care they need. They are often used to target specific populations and occur at a time of greatest need. Insufficient attention and political action has been devoted to preventing and stopping these attacks. This panel of international experts have been working for decades to stop these gross human rights abuses. They will outline the scope of these atrocities and what could be done to stop them and bring the perpetrators to justice.
Date: December 2nd, 2021, Time: 1:00pm-2:00pm EDT

Dear Partner,

The Association for the Development of Education in Africa (ADEA) promotes knowledge and experience sharing around practical and innovative solutions to address education challenges across Africa. During 2021, ADEA is running a three-part series high-level policy dialogue forum on “Rethinking the role of Skills Development in future work and lifelong learning, in light of digitalization and the 4th Industrial Revolution (4IR)”. The first series, held in July, focused on technical and vocational skills development.

ADEA and its partners will hold the second high-level policy dialogue forum on “Elevating foundational learning as a pathway to skills development and lifelong learning through digitalization” on 23rd November 2021. The forum will look at (1) using evidence and data to inform decision making and investments on foundational learning, (2) early childhood development for strengthening school preparedness and readiness to learn, and (3) leveraging technology in structured pedagogy, and coaching and learning materials for improved learning.

We invite you to mark the date of 23rd November 2021 in your calendar in order not to miss out on this important event. More details about the forum, including the concept note and the agenda will be communicated in due course.

Planetary Health Education Framework
2021-08-18 11:00 - 12:00 UTC
This webinar introduces the Planetary Health Education Framework (PHEF) to the CUGH community. The PHEF is a transdisciplinary effort that aims to guide the education of global citizens, practitioners, and professionals able and willing to address the complex Planetary Health challenges of our world today. The framework can be understood as a common foundational language that serves as the cornerstone for diverse education strategies. It intends to move beyond thematic areas of interest or a prescriptive list of competencies towards the recognition of the diverse inquiries (i.e, the why/affective, the what/representation, the how/strategic) that can shape Planetary Health Education.

Don't miss The Youth Progress Virtual Forum on June 10th
2021-06-10
Covid, Climate and Commitment
We are at a critical moment in time. We need to align on how the world recovers from Covid, how to make real climate action happen and how to protect and improve the quality of life for our young and future generations. The European Youth Forum, and the Social Progress Imperative are hosting a live virtual forum on June 10th to bring these issues to the forefront with policy-makers, business and civil society organizations.
We will preview the new Youth Progress Index, a tool we developed to understand what is working and what isn’t for youth across the world. The practical framework can be used to identify and prioritize the pressing needs of young people, remove barriers to their wellbeing and prosperity, and provide the resources needed to shape a fairer society for the future.
Through in-depth interviews and discussions we will address issues such as: the best way to move forward with climate action; how we assess and repair the damage caused by the global pandemic, from mental health issues, to job loss,
education disruption and more.
If we want to move people we have to move ourselves, if we want to create change we have to change the conversation and if we want to make commitments happen we must commit to showing up. So join us on June 10th as we mobilise for change.
