The TEA Learning Partnership aims to build the necessary human capital to achieve SDG 7 and increase access to affordable, clean and safe energy for all.
The TEA-LP is supporting eight universities across Africa to develop new postgraduate curricula for the energy access sector. Partner universities are provided with both financial and technical support to develop their new courses and degree programmes.
The universities include:
- Mekelle University – Ethiopia
- University of Port Harcourt – Nigeria
- National University of Lesotho - Lesotho
- Strathmore University – Kenya
- Moi University – Kenya
- University of Malawi – The Polytechnic – Malawi
- Gulu University – Uganda
- Pan-African University Institute of Water and Energy Sciences - Algeria
Each university is developing their own curriculum based on their strengths and informed by their market engagement with their regional energy access sector stakeholders. Across all programmes, however, the following core TEA-LP principles apply:
- Responsive to sectoral needs – each university commences with a market needs assessment which they use these in the design of their outcomes driven curriculum;
- Multidisciplinary – to produce well rounded graduates with diverse skillsets and competencies,
- Gender mainstreaming – in both course content and classroom and teaching settings;
- Soft skills – emphasizing the development of soft skills together with discipline/subject specific knowledge and competencies.
- Sustainability – each partner will also develop a comprehensive business plan and marketing strategy to ensure operational success.
