19-21 September
The International Conference on Education Research for Development in Africa (ICERDA) is a research partnership between The University of Cape Coast and The Centre for the Study of Global Development at The Open University, UK. The goal of ICERDA is to create a unique space for new and established education researchers to meet regularly to disseminate research that addresses and develops research that inspires our policy makers to take action to improve the quality of education for all Africans, especially the disadvantaged and marginalised.
ICERDA responds to the need for an independent forum where African voices, and scholars who work with African colleagues, can share evidence-based insights into educating the next generation of young Africans. As the Sustainable Development Goals progress, it is more important than ever that the locus of control of development and the ideas that make theories of change a reality are driven by African public intellectuals who can speak truth to power.
