Short Description:

Overall goal


Die Organisation "Association for the Development of Education in Africa" (ADEA) ist ein Forum des Politikdialogs zwischen den afrikanischen Bildungsministerien und den Geberagenturen. Durch den Austausch von Good Practices und innovativen Ansätzen hat ADEA eine katalysatorische Funktion für die Durchführung von Bildungsreformen in Afrika. Die Mitgliedschaft Österreichs in der ADEA bietet Gelegenheit, die Erfahrungen Österreichs auf internationalem Niveau einzubringen und über neue Entwicklungen im Bildungssektor informiert zu sein.


Die inhaltliche Arbeit findet in 9 Arbeitsgruppen statt, einen Höhepunkt stellen die alle drei Jahre stattfindenden "Bildungs-Triennalen" dar. Die Triennale 2011 wird in Burkina Faso zum Thema post-primare Bildung abgehalten. Dieses Thema wird auch in den kommenden Jahren Schwerpunkt von ADEA bleiben. Die Mitgliedschaft Österreichs in ADEA ist deshalb im Hinblick auf die Erfahrungen im formalen und non-formalen Berufsbildungssektor von großer Bedeutung.
