Project summary

Regional Teachers Initiative for Africa (RTIA) aims to support African countries to raise both the quality of teacher education and training, and contribute to increasing the availability of teachers with minimum required qualifications.

Within the RTIA, VVOB joins the Regional Facility for Teachers in Africa, to support regional and national initiatives aimed at providing quality education by operating through a multifaceted approach, which includes three complementary components. The RTIA Facility is supported by France, Finland and Belgium. VVOB joins Team Belgium alongside Belgium’s development agency Enabel and the Association pour la Promotion de l'Education et de la Formation à l'Etranger (APEFE) in the Facility to complement the other components of the RTIA, which focus on enhancing teacher professional development, support, and collaboration across Africa, and facilitating policy research, exchange and peer learning to ensure consistency between global, regional, and national efforts which are led by the African Union Commission and UNESCO respectively.

The project wants to improve learning outcomes and the socio-emotional development of children in Africa, by having a more competent, motivated and inclusive teacher workforce in basic education. Enhance the quality, relevance, and effectiveness of initial and continuous teacher professional development, notably through digital education, peer-to-peer learning approaches and regional collaboration.

The specific objectives are :
A - Address system challenges and strengthen capacity for teacher policy through technical assistance on teacher governance and teacher education and professional development;
B - Accelerate better teaching and strengthen capacity for initial teaching and continuous teacher professional development.
