Supporting CEMAC's Plans to Create a Regional University of Excellence

The CEMAC Commission sought the assistance of FERDI to carry out an inventory of existing higher education programmes of excellence in the six countries of the zone, and a feasibility study for a regional university of excellence.


The project to create a regional university of excellence, spearheaded by Professor Daniel ONA ONDO, has garnered the support of all six member countries. 

It was decided that this regional university of excellence would be based in Equatorial Guinea, on the Djibloho campus, and that it would be supported by a network of satellite institutes/training centres of excellence which are present in various CEMAC member countries. One of the main objectives of this university of excellence and the satellite institutes is to meet the training and subsequent employment needs of Central African youth. If the CEMAC countries were to look ahead for the next 20 years, what skills would they need to sustain their growth and be competitive?

As part of its partnership agreement with the CEMAC Commission, FERDI supports CEMAC's plans to create a regional university of excellence. As part of its partnership agreement With the CEMAC Commission, FERDI is analysing the various economic models applicable to community centres of excellence, and in particular to the Afro-American University of Central Africa (AAUCA). The work in progress should be completed in 2024.
