Call for host – FAU General Conference 2025

These events are jointly organised by the FAU and a member institution in good standing with the Association (i.e. having zero arrears in annual subscription payment). It should be noted that the co-hosting of this most important event on the calendar of the African higher education community provides very high-level visibility and exposure to the host institution and country because of the calibre and number of academic leaders, policymakers, researchers, development partners, industry, and other stakeholders that usually attend it, and it is, therefore, a highly sought-after event.
