As part of the Angola Rural Education Quality Improvement Project, funded by the Government of Korea through KOICA, planning and training sessions were held across the three provinces covered by the programme – Cuanza Norte, Malanje, and Uíge – to enhance the technical, methodological, and pedagogical skills of participating teams.

In Cuanza Norte, a planning session on digital education brought together representatives from the three provinces, in collaboration with the Ministry of Education of Angola. The session focused on aligning methodologies, coordinating activities for the 2025/2026 academic year, and strengthening the project’s pedagogical, technical, and administrative efforts.

In Malanje, planning and training sessions for the gender component trainers took place at the ADPP Malanje Teacher Training School. Over three days of intensive and productive work, teams developed innovative strategies and approaches to promote a more inclusive and equitable education system.

In Uíge, the STEM planning session gathered staff and guest trainers. The programme featured technical and administrative discussions, a field visit to a landfill site, and practical activities on topics such as exponents, greatest common divisor, area, perimeter, and making homemade modelling clay. The sessions also included a review of guidelines from the “40 STEM Sessions” manual, setting a strong foundation for the new academic year.

In the Literacy Component, Module 2 training for literacy facilitators began, reaffirming the project’s commitment to improving education in rural communities.

These sessions strengthened coordination among provincial teams, laying the groundwork for more efficient implementation and greater impact across all target areas.
