It is through the Africa Digital Campus project launched on Tuesday 25 October at the Golden Tulip in Cotonou by the Beninese Minister of Higher Education and the Minister of Digitalization that the signing of the consortium agreement took place. Professor Clotilde T. Guidi, Director of INSTI Lokossa and Professor Joachim Djimon Gbenou, Rector of UNSTIM, the university that coordinates the activities of the INSTI university centre, also took part.<\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Indeed, several African countries have adopted distance education as a means of addressing the challenge of educating their citizens. This is materialized by the creation of several university centres in secondary cities and virtual universities. However, there is a major difficulty on the continent. This includes the availability of adequate IT infrastructure and advanced services to enable access to resources to facilitate the learning process and assessments. The Covid-19 pandemic highlighted this evidence, with millions of African students denied access to campuses. In addition, affordable access to adequate connectivity remains a challenge.<\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.afro-impact.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/insti-africa-digital-campus-benin-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"Benin is a beneficiary of the Africa Digital Campus project through the INSTI university centre in Lokossa.\" class=\"wp-image-12653\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.afro-impact.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/insti-africa-digital-campus-benin-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.afro-impact.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/insti-africa-digital-campus-benin-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.afro-impact.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/insti-africa-digital-campus-benin-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.afro-impact.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/insti-africa-digital-campus-benin-150x100.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.afro-impact.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/insti-africa-digital-campus-benin-450x300.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/www.afro-impact.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/insti-africa-digital-campus-benin-1200x800.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/www.afro-impact.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/insti-africa-digital-campus-benin.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Benin&#8217;s Minister of Higher Education, Professor El\u00e9onore Yayi Lad\u00e9kan (left), the Director of INSTI, Professor Clotilde T.

Africa Digital Campus, a project focusing on distance learning and connectivity, is one of them.<\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thus, financed by the French Development Agency (AFD) with funds delegated by the European Union (EU), the Africa Digital Campus project is part of the EU program. The latter is entitled &#8220;Connectivity and digital solutions to build resilience to the crisis in education, health and MSMEs in African, Caribbean and Pacific States (OEACP)&#8221;.<\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Africa Digital Campus (ADC) project will last for 2 years and has four main components: E-learning, Infrastructure, Community of Practice and Advocacy. It fits perfectly into the vision of the Government of the Republic of Benin which is to develop digital technology in higher education. ADC complements government initiatives such as the Beninese Education and Research Network (RBER), the first phase of which has already interconnected ten (10) university sites with services such as connectivity, IP telephony and videoconferencing; and the e-Learning project.<\/p>&#13;\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; Suite \u00e0 un\u00a0appel \u00e0 candidature aupr\u00e8s des structures d\u2019enseignement de quatre pays de l\u2019Afrique de l\u2019ouest et centrale que sont le Benin, le Burkina Faso, la Cote d\u2019Ivoire et le Mali, le B\u00e9nin \u00e0 travers l\u2019INSTI Lokossa et le Burkina Faso \u00e0 travers l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Virtuelle de Ouagadougou, ont \u00e9t\u00e9 retenus comme pays pilote pour<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12649,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[350],"tags":[2595,2596,2597],"class_list":["post-12673","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-education-en","tag-africa-digital-campus-en","tag-e-learning-en","tag-insti-lokossa-en"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.5 (Yoast SEO v25.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Benin\/Africa Digital Campus: The INSTI of Lokossa is a beneficiary of the project - Afro impact<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Following a call for applications from educational institutions in four West and Central African countries, namely Benin, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast and Mali, Benin, through INSTI Lokossa, and Burkina Faso, through the Virtual University of Ouagadougou, have been selected as pilot countries to test this initiative.
