Call for Submission: African Union Innovating Education in Africa

Call invites innovators to propose new and practical education innovations with the potential for sustainability, scalability and replication on a wide scale. We are looking to mobilize continental education innovators to rethink solutions that will help address education and skills development challenges in Africa especially as countries emerge from COVID-19.


AU Innovating Education in Africa aim to create change by:

Incentivizing innovators to identify major education and skills development challenges in Africa;

Sourcing innovative ideas and solutions to those challenges for adoption replication and scale-up; and

Encouraging innovation partnerships involving education and training institutions, governments and other key stakeholders.


Eligibility Criteria
Applications will be accepted from citizens of AU Member States leading an organisation that meets the following criteria:

Successfully implementing an education innovation in one or more AU Member States with verifiable outcomes. An education innovation refers to a product or service being offered by an organisation which uses a relatively distinct approach—with respect to the African context—in addressing challenges in the education system.

Legally registered and licensed to operate in an AU Member State.

Directly responsible for the implementation and management of the innovation, i.e., not acting as an intermediary.


Benefits
Successful applicants will benefit from one or more of the following:

Receive grants of up to 100,000 USD to strengthen the interoperability of innovations with public education systems, while collecting evidence on effectiveness.

Promotion of Innovation to AU Member States and Development Partners, including publication in the Africa Education Innovations Handbook 2022.

Certificate of recognition from the Commissioner of Education, Science, Technology, and Innovation of the African Union.

Description of the innovation, specifically how it functions, the implementation approach, and revenue model (500 words).

Report of the performance and outcomes of the innovation (500 words).

Please note that no

more than one innovation may be submitted by an organisation; failure to comply will lead to disqualification. Recipients of grants under the IEA programme in the past are not eligible to apply.
