This is a continental platform for educators to share
innovative ideas, best practice, and interrogate
issues relating to teaching and learning mathematics
and science. The aim is to strengthen the capability
of youth in Science, Technology, Engineering and
Mathematics (STEM) subjects for 21st century
living. It brings together educators, policy makers,
researchers, teachers, NGOs, and public / private
sector stakeholders to present papers, posters,
exhibitions and workshop concepts.
The demand to enhance Science, Technology, Engineering and
Mathematics (STEM) Education in Africa continues to grow with a
view to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). CESA is
AUC’s revolutionary approach for implementing Agenda 2063 &
SDG 4 on education. The STEM cluster was launched in 2016
hosted by Kenya with mandate to operationalize CESA Strategic
Objective Seven. SMASE-Africa is a member of the cluster. The
STEM cluster is co-coordinated by CEMASTEA, African Institute
for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) & African Academy of
Sciences (AAS). The cluster serves to consolidate information on
STEM education in Africa for peer learning, enhance alignment
and harmony to facilitate identification and creation of synergies
for efficiency and effectiveness.
