Bridging the Education Gap
With this backdrop, Africa needs intense and relevant capacity development programmes in order to catalyse local, national and continental development efforts.
As such, the United Kingdom is seen as a hub for excellence in international development education, with the potential to address these knowledge and skill inequities.
Nevertheless, these prestigious UK institutions and programmes are often inaccessible to African professionals due to high tuition costs and restrictive immigration policies.
The few who access these institutions mainly through scholarships are frequently absorbed by international organizations outside Africa, reducing direct impact on the continent’s development.
Afro-Brit CID was thus founded to bridge this gap.
By partnering with leading UK institutions, we expand access to high-quality, affordable, and accredited online graduate and postgraduate programmes, ensuring that Africa’s development leaders can acquire the skills and expertise they need—without leaving the continent.
This initiative also creates new market opportunities for UK institutions, enabling them to reach African professionals eager to advance their careers and transform their communities.
Afro-Brit CID is more than education; it is a catalyst for sustainable, African-led development.
