The purpose of the project is to support interventions in universities supported by the Partnership for Higher Education in Africa (PHEA) Educational Technology Initiative (ETI) to make increasingly effective use of educational technology to address some of the underlying educational challenges facing the higher educational sector in Africa. This will require a focus on capacity development to initiate and sustain effective educational technology projects which impact on the nature and quality of the student learning experience and outcomes, as well as a focus on knowledge creation and dissemination across and between partner universities on the use of educational technology.

See PHEA conceptual framework document for a more detailed discussion of the initiative.
