AITCHISON, John. A voz do Sul na CONFINTEA VI: a agenda da África. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2009, vol.14, n.41, pp.335-344. ISSN 1413-2478.

The text is a synthesis of the African agenda for CONFINTEA VI based on national reports prepared by 46 African countries present in Nairobi, Kenya, in November 2008. After a brief description of the discouraging context, the author lists the questions which were considered priority with regard to structure, management, financing and quality of adult education in Africa. Faced with the affirmation that the problems of the area are massive, wide-ranging and systemic, the representatives present in Nairobi suggested greater exchange between countries and the creation of a multi-sectoral high level group to raise funds for the financing of adult learning and education in Africa. In addition, they recommended that CONFINTEA VI should be oriented towards results and action and that an effective system for monitoring the implementation of the deliberations taken should be established.

Keywords : Adult Education in Africa; Confintea VI.
