Survey of ICT in Education in Africa, Volume 2: 53 Country Reports

These short reports provide general overviews of current activities and issues related to ICT use in education in individual African countries. The preliminary data presented here, drawn from a quick survey process conducted in 2007, should be regarded as illustrative rather than exhaustive.

ICT use in education is at a particularly dynamic stage in Africa; new developments and announcements are happening on a daily basis somewhere on the continent. Therefore, these reports, which are of variable length and quality, should be seen as best-effort "snapshots" that were current at the time they were taken; it is expected that certain facts and figures presented may become dated very quickly.

Each short report provides a general overview of current activities and developments related to ICT use in education in the country, using the following format:

  • Overview
  • Country profile
  • The Education System
  • ICT Policies
  • Infrastructure
  • Current ICT Initiatives and Projects
  • Implementing ICT in Education

Please note:

It is anticipated that the country reports developed as part of infoDev's Survey of ICT and Education in Africa will serve as the building block for an on-line database (in a wiki format) that will be updated collaboratively over time, based on additional research and feedback received through the infoDev web site.

To suggest modifications to these country reports, please e-mail ict4edu AT infoDev DOT org or enter your comments on the individual country report pages on the infoDev web site.
