Education has been selected as the African Union’s theme of the year 2024, which presents a unique opportunity to create the necessary policy space for change.

It is one of the reasons why the United Nations Office of the Special Adviser co-organized the flagship Africa Dialogue Series 2024 with the African Union Permanent Observer Mission to the United Nations under the theme “Education through Science, Technology and Innovation toward the Africa We Want.”

This is because Education in Africa stands at a crossroads, confronting dual challenges related to the association of existing deficits with the rapidly evolving demands of the Digital Age.
