The ABC BlendEd project unites eleven European and African partners.
ABC BlendEd aims at Developing curricular activities involving students from different countries and disciplines, collaborating as a team to complete projects that generate relevant outputs to the local communities, improves students’ enthusiasm as well as core competences for the labour market such as teamwork, entrepreneurship, critical thinking, and communication skills.
The European universities in the partnership created and keep developing one such course unit since 2008 (BlendEd). The purpose of the ABC BlendEd project is to empower African universities in the area of Agriculture to setup and run such courses and to escalate the model to other areas in Africa.
In three years, we expect to have an effective BlendEd course running and generating relevant outputs in the field of agriculture, 10 examples of sound results produced by the course and transferred to the local communities, an active Community of Practice developing the BlendEd paradigm in Africa.
