Africa Fellows in Education Program 2023/2024.

The Partnership for Economic Policy (PEP) has launched a new call for applications for the Africa Fellows in Education Program 2023/2024.

This initiative aims to build a group of African-based leaders capable of developing evidence and shaping educational policies that are relevant to their countries.

The program enables the fellows to participate in a two-year research and policy development fellowship that introduces them both to relevant research and analytical experiences and to international networks of researchers and policy advisers.

  • Recycling can be promoted in low-income communities through a business model framework 
  • Business models for recycling efforts in low-income communities need financial and administrative support for sustainability in the short to medium term. 
  • There is no one-size-fits-all approach to such a business model framework. The model must be adapted to fit the community’s needs
