This year's theme for Africa day is 'Educate an African fit for the 21st century: Building resilient education systems for increased access to inclusive, lifelong, quality, and relevant learning in Africa.' It is everyone's job to ensure that our educational systems are aligned with the ever-changing digital world we live in. Let us not be ignorant, but rather keep up with the 21st century educational systems. Every African child has the ability to prosper if they are provided with the skills and knowledge required to navigate the digital world. This is consistent with the AU's Agenda 2063, which places education at the heart of creating a successful Africa based on inclusivity and sustainable development. As such, it contributes to the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG #4, which addresses quality education. #africaday #iamanafrican #agenda2063 #sustainabledevelopmentgoals #educationinafrica #africanunion

Today, IRIAD - The Electoral Hub commemorates Africa Day 2024. This year's theme, "Educate an African fit for the 21st Century: Building resilient education systems for increased access to inclusive, lifelong, quality, and relevant learning in Africa," is a timely reminder of the crucial role education plays in shaping our continent's future. It is a reminder that stakeholders - governments, civil society organizations, private sector entities, and individuals - should prioritize investments in education that foster inclusive access for all, lifelong learning opportunities, quality teaching and learning, as well as relevant curricula for the modern era. Let's take action. Through collaborative efforts, we can build resilient educational systems that equip people to thrive in the 21st century. #EducateAfrica2024 #InclusiveQualityLearning #AfricaEducationTransformation #BuildResilientEducationaSystems

Education in Africa is not just a pathway to personal growth; it is the cornerstone of our continent's future. As a passionate educator, I believe that education holds the key to unlocking the vast potential within our communities. It empowers individuals, fosters innovation, and drives economic development. In the face of many economic challenges, education becomes a beacon of hope, offering solutions and fostering unity. By promoting Pan-African languages and integrating cultural values into our educational systems, we can create a more inclusive and resilient society that fosters cultural pride and self-esteem. Investing in education means investing in our youth, who are the leaders of today and tomorrow. It is through education that we can address social inequalities, improve health outcomes, and build sustainable communities. Let us embrace the transformative power of education to shape a brighter, more prosperous Africa. From a Mandelian point of view, education is the most powerful weapon that can be used to change Africa. 🌍🔥💯❤️✍🏿 #Ubuntu #Education Kijika the Pen-trovert ✍🏿🪶📖

Across the continent, Africa is experiencing a period of immense growth and transformation. To propel this progress forward, we require a generation equipped with the skills and knowledge to navigate the complexities of the 21st century. Traditional approaches that focus solely on rote learning no longer suffice. Critical thinking, problem-solving, and digital literacy are becoming essential tools. To address this critical topic, we're hosting a webinar titled “Are African Education Curricula Effectively Preparing Citizens for the Future?” as we align with the African Union Year of Education to tackle one of the most pressing questions of our time. 🗓️ Date: June 26th, 2024. Our discussion will address critical issues within the African education system, including outdated curricula, lack of practical skills training, and insufficient alignment with the job market demands. These challenges are hindering the potential of Africa's youth to thrive in an increasingly competitive and digital world. We are excited to bring together major stakeholders and experts in education to explore innovative solutions and pathways forward. Stay tuned for speaker announcements! In the meantime, register now for free to be a part of this vital conversation on shaping the future of education in Africa. https://bit.ly/TEPAU8 #Education #Webinar #AfricanUnion #FutureOfEducation #EducationReform #YouthEmpowerment #TEPCentre #TEPWebinar

The theme for Africa Day 2024 is "Educate an African fit for the 21st Century: Building resilient Education systems for increased access to inclusive, lifelong, quality, and relevant learning in Africa" . This theme reflects the focus on transforming education across Africa to prepare Africans for the demands and opportunities of the 21st century . It is quite imparative to use the education one has acquired to make sure they value inclusivity in access to different services around them. Health and well-being as one of the Sustainable Development Goals is an essential human right and the current education systems in Africa should specifically align themselves to ensure the different professionals being groomed in the different schools come out with an inclusive mind in their way of operations, when they set up their facilities of practice. #HAAD,#Inclusivity
