CADFP Fellows spend time at host institutions in Africa, where they engage in a range of educational activities in their field of specialization, including curriculum co-development/revision, collaborative research, and training/mentoring of graduate students and early-career faculty.

The 2021 CADFP Alumni Convening was organized to offer a space for reflecting on some of these experiences, drawing transferable lessons, and charting possible future pathways for diaspora engagement in African higher education.
