African Higher Education to hold a Summit in Dakar

The African Higher Education (AHE) is organising a Summit on the Future of African Higher Education in March 2015 in Dakar. As the planning get undeerway, the Carnegie African Diaspora Fellowship Program will also hold a Diaspora Convening, comprised of academics in the African diaspora at the November 2014 African Studies Association’s annual meeting.

The summit is aimed at developing a series of concrete recommendations that represent the Diaspora’s voice(s) at the AHE Summit.

These resolutions will be sent to Carnegie Corporation of New York, who are one of the 11 organizing partners, for inclusion during the Summit.

The African Higher Education is reaching to African-born academics in higher education in the United States and Canada to gather foundational information on the activities of the diaspora, as well as to identify panel presenters who could represent themselves and their diaspora networks.
