About RITA

RTIA is a collaboration between the EU, UNESCO, and the African Union Commission, aiming to address the teacher shortage in Sub‑Saharan Africa. It focuses on areas such as teacher governance, professional development, and education reform. 

The RTIA puts an emphasis on:

• Technical assistance for countries to support the development and implementation of policies, education, and professional development for teachers.
• Testing and scaling up of successful programmes on teacher education and training focusing on selected priorities (e.g. foundational learning, digital and green skills, gender-responsive pedagogy) including in crisis contexts.
• Research partnerships (regional and AU-EU) on teacher policies, their satisfaction and well-being, and evidence for better teacher governance and professional development.
• Strengthening regional capacity, coordination and frameworks (e.g. the implementation of the Continental Teacher Qualifications Framework and development of a continental digital competency framework for teachers).
• Regional knowledge sharing, advocacy, coordination and capacity building for teacher policy and professional development.
