"The ADEA 30th Anniversary Commemorative Booklet explores the challenges and progress of education in Africa over a 30-year period, focusing on the work of the Association for the Developement of Education in Africa (ADEA). It highlights the significant contributions of its various Working Groups including the one dedicated to higher education, non-formal education, mathematics and science education as well as communication for education and development.
These groups have created robust networks bringing together experts, decision-makers and members of civil society to promote educational reform. Landmark events such as the Triennales and the African Ministerial Forums have played a crucial role in the discussion of innovative policies and practices. The booklet also highlights the importance of common core competencies and methodological approaches to strengthening education systems. It recognizes persistent challenges, notably the lack of resources and the need to improve the perception of vocational training.
In conclusion, ADEA continues to facilitate effective partnerships and policy dialogue for quality education in Africa, adapting to global agendas such as Agenda 2030 and Agenda 2063."
