This year’s eLearning Africa takes place in Lusaka, Zambia, later this week, and promises to be a great chance to catch up with colleagues working on ICT4D! I have been lucky enough to participate in all of the four previous eLearning Africa conferences in Ethiopia, Kenya, Ghana and Senegal, and they have always provided a useful opportunity to learn about some of the latest developments in the field. It is particularly good to meet African academics and activists committed to using ICTs to support the aspirations of poor and marginalised people across the continent.
Thanks to all those at ICWE who have been working so hard in recent months to put on the conference – I hope it’s a great success.
