The 4th International Quality Education Conference (IQEC)
The 4th International Quality Education Conference (IQEC), hosted by TenMeT (Tanzania Education Network) aims to address pressing education challenges in Africa. Join CAMFED in the exhibition space and follow our speakers on the panels below.
November 13th Panel Discussion: Increasing education investment for girls and young women (11:40-12:40 EAT)
On Wednesday, November 13th, Anna Sawaki, Director of Programs and Partnerships at CAMFED Tanzania, will speak to the need to increase investment in the education of girls and young women.
This session will spotlight successful initiatives, including CAMFED’s Learner Guide model, and advocate for increased support, ensuring that the most disadvantaged students can thrive in education, and gain the skills they need to become independent and influential, so that they can, in turn, deploy their expertise as mentors and role models for the next generation.
November 14th Panel Discussion: Sharing best practices in girls’ education (8:30-10:30 EAT)
On November 14th, Clemence Nhilizyo, Policy and Advocacy Manager at CAMFED Zimbabwe, will join a panel of education experts and stakeholders from across the continent to discuss “Sharing best practices on the effectiveness of early warning systems in promoting student retention and addressing dropout rates.”
Clemence will discuss the Early Warning System (EWS) in Zimbabwe, which seeks to reduce dropout rates among vulnerable girls by identifying at-risk students through attendance and academic performance indicators. Targeted interventions, including mentorship from CAMFED and the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education’s joint Peer Educator program, offers tailored support for students to overcome barriers to education. This integrated approach fosters a supportive environment, engages families and community stakeholders, and ultimately enhances student retention and educational success, using data-driven insights.
Exhibition: Meet with representatives from CAMFED Tanzania
CAMFED Tanzania will be an exhibitor at the Conference.
This is an opportunity to speak directly to leaders transforming lives by breaking down barriers to girls’ education and supporting the most vulnerable girls to stay in school, excel in their studies, and become powerful leaders in their communities.
