Improving the quality of teacher education in Sub-Saharan Africa: lessons learned from a UNESCO-China Funds-in-Trust project

The booklet describes how the project started, the choice of beneficiary countries, the implementation strategies and its achievements. The different sections numbered one to four describe particular aspects of the project, using country cases to illustrate how the success of the project was due to strong country ownership and leadership. UNESCO, in partnership with the Government of the People’s Republic of China, initiated the project to enhance the institutional capacity and the professional development of teacher educators through ICT-supported learning, teaching and research. This technology aided the transformation of capacity teacher training through digitalization of instructional materials.
