On 27 August 2025, the FAWE Regional Secretariat successfully hosted the inaugural session of its Continuous Learning and Dissemination Plan, a cornerstone initiative designed to systematically strengthen knowledge sharing and strategic alignment across its vast pan-African network.
The virtual kick-off session, organized by the Secretariat’s Knowledge Management Unit, brought together colleagues from the regional office and representatives from FAWE’s National Chapters. This event marks a significant step in FAWE’s commitment to creating a structured, dynamic platform for dialogue, the exchange of best practices, and enhanced coordination between programmes.
The plan is strategically designed to boost the quality, impact, and visibility of FAWE’s interventions. Its core mission is to foster mutual learning, promote the scaling of proven educational models, and build powerful synergies within the FAWE community and with its external partners.
During the session, participants were introduced to the plan’s objectives and innovative methodology. This includes a schedule of periodic interactive meetings where programmes from different countries will share their experiences, challenges, innovations, and most valuable lessons learned. The discussions powerfully highlighted the critical importance of documentation, dissemination, and the capitalization of knowledge to solidify FAWE’s position as a leading reference in girls’ education across Africa.
The session was expertly facilitated by FAWE’s Knowledge Management Officers: Dr. Koly Fall, Anne Motanya, Gordon Aomo, and James Njuguna, who each presented on the plan’s vision under the themes “Stronger Together,” “Elevating Education,” “From Lessons to Legacy,” and “Knowledge in Motion.”
This launch is a vital milestone in FAWE’s journey towards institutionalizing continuous learning and evidence-based action. These sessions will become a dynamic engine for collaboration, driving the scaling of effective models and dramatically amplifying FAWE’s collective impact for every child in Africa.
