INVITATION TO AFRICA DAY INDABA 2023 

The African Social Work Network (ASWNet) and Association of Schools of Social Work in Africa (ASSWA) cordially invite you to the Africa Day Indaba 2023. An indaba is an Ubuntu-inspired discussion space which values contributions from as many people in attendance as possible, in a respectful and reciprocal manner.

Theme: Socio-economic development in education, research and practice

Our theme this year was shaped by African Union’s theme ‘The Year of AfCFTA: Acceleration of the African Continental Free Trade Area Implementation. The AfCFTA presents a unique opportunity for the continent to attain economic emancipation, which will lead to job creation, poverty alleviation, improved welfare and sustainable development. Beyond the policy transformation and reforms, the AfCFTA seeks to ensure inclusivity of women and youth, development of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and overall industrialization of the Continent” (AU, 2023).
