The Intra-Africa Academic Mobility Scheme, a joint initiative of the African Union and the European Union, is being implemented under the auspices of the Pan-African Partnership. The programme is directly managed by the European Commission through the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency, under the supervision of the Directorate General for International Cooperation and Development and in collaboration with the African Union Commission Department for Human Resources, Science and Technology.
The programme brings together HEIs from different regions which will have to set up adequate mechanisms to organize the exchanges, such as arrangements to compare curricula and recognize the study periods abroad. It is therefore expected that the programme will enhance harmonization and standardization of higher education in line with the African Union Strategy for Harmonization of Higher Education. It will provide specific lessons for the implementation of the Pan African Quality and Accreditation Framework and make a substantial contribution to regional integration.
