As part of its work to support widening access to high quality education, Saide collaborates with many institutions and organisations throughout sub-Saharan Africa. Due to its diverse forms of work, the organisation has formed a network of education partners in sub-Saharan Africa. These network institutions do not only host Saide staff who visit to offer support, most of them are also keen to visit the Saide offices in Johannesburg to meet with and share experiences with more staff at Saide. Ephraim Mhlanga reports on a recent visit from a team from the National Open University of Nigeria. |

The Southern African Regional Universities Association (SARUA) Vice Chancellors' Leadership Dialogue was held in the Western Cape, South Africa in September 2015. The conference title was Global Trends in Technology in Higher Education: Opportunities for African Universities. Saide was represented by Catherine Ngugi, our OER Africa project director, who gave one of the keynote addresses. Each of the twelve participating universities were required to provide a two page document on the landscape of blended learning at their institution.
