Dakar, Senegal — The Republic of Senegal - under the high patronage of Macky Sall, President of the Republic of Senegal and Lead Champion for the Committee of Ten Champion African Heads of State on Education, Science and Technology - is hosting the 2017 Triennale of the Association for the Development of Education in Africa (ADEA), in Diamniadio (Dakar) on March 14-17, 2017.

The ADEA Triennale (formerly Biennale) is one of the most important global events on education and training in Africa, not only for the content of the discussions but also for the quality of the analytical work and high-level participants invited. It brings together heads of state, a significant number of African government Ministers of Education and Training (and ministers in charge of other sectors like youth, labour and SMEs), representatives of development cooperation agencies supporting education in Africa and practitioners and researchers. Representatives of civil society, youth, private sector and other stakeholders such as diaspora are also invited.
