Welcome to June Convening!

The Education Collaborative’s June Convening is our largest in-person gathering, bringing together member institutions, partners, and higher education stakeholders committed to shaping higher education in Africa. Our platform is designed for sharing, learning and co-creating innovations that set new benchmarks of excellence for transformed student outcomes.

At our June Convenings, we attract new interests, reconnect with existing ones and showcase progress toward our impact goals.

This year, we are excited to move from the vibrant shores of Accra, Ghana to the picturesque, rolling hills of Kigali, Rwanda. Participants will experience the unique energy of Kigali’s landscape and climate, setting the stage for meaningful conversation and collaboration.

Reflecting, mobilizing, and realigning efforts for a transformational student experience

Our convening theme, “Recentering Student Development: Reflecting, Mobilizing, and Realigning for a Transformational Student Experience,” focuses on four pillars:

• Reflection on past and current practices to identify areas for improvement in student experiences.
• Mobilization of resources and efforts to address identified gaps.
• Realignment of strategies to meet evolving student needs.
• Transformation to create a student-centered experience that fosters academic, personal, and professional growth.
