AfLIA Open Education Week Virtual Summit
Ongoing Activity: Tue March 3, 2026 @ 9:00 am - Wed March 4, 2026 @ 1:00 pm GMT
The African Library and Information Associations and Institutions (AfLIA) will host a two-day virtual summit on Open Education, themed “Open Education, Open Possibilities.” This event is designed for library and information science (LIS) practitioners across all library types, as well as African LIS educators, researchers, policymakers, and other stakeholders involved in the Open Education field, including organizations and professionals collaborating with African libraries.
Participants are expected to enhance their understanding of Open Education and discover how libraries can lead the development, training, and advocacy of Open Educational Resources (OER) in a contextualised manner. The summit aims to improve knowledge regarding multi-stakeholder collaborations and policy frameworks that support the institutional adoption of OERs.
