Higher Education Forum for Africa, Asia and Latin America
Venue
South Africa
The International Network for Higher Education in Africa is gearing up to launch the Higher Education Forum for Africa, Asia and Latin America (HEFAALA) with an objective to promote trans-continental and global dialogue in higher education.
The Forum is intended to foster discussion, research, policy formulation and analysis, publication and communication in recognition of the enormous common challenges as well as emerging opportunities particularly in the three regions in the increasingly globalized higher education domain.
HEFAALA, supported by a grant from the Carnegie Corporation of New York, will be officially launched in a dedicated symposium in Durban, South Africa, on August 20, 2016. The two-day Symposium will be marked by high-level discussions and rigorous analyses following the presentation of commissioned studies in topical higher education issues of regional, trans-regional and international significance by leading experts from the three regions and beyond.
