The African Union Commission's Department of Education, Science, Technology and Innovation (AUC-ESTI), in collaboration with the Association for the Development of Education in Africa (ADEA) and the African Union's Pan-African Institute for Education for Development (AU-IPED), has launched a new Continental Education Strategy for Africa (CESA 2026: 2035) Cluster. This initiative, focused on education governance, policy, and finance, aims to establish a continental mechanism to enhance these areas and related partnerships across Africa.
