Eduvos Launches Impact Platform, Expanding Its Strategic Commitment to Africa’s Prosperity.

Post by Eduvos, October 22, 2024.

We have launched our new ‘Impact Platform’, a technology and tools hub geared to equip students for a more dynamic world. The launch of the Impact Platform is a significant step in our broader strategy to provide affordable access to higher education and drive meaningful societal change by enabling access to higher learning opportunities through technology.  

"Eduvos’s Impact Platform creates a space for dialogue and learning, where we can exchange knowledge with our partners, students, and communities. By sharing our journey, we invite others into the conversation, fostering a level of collaboration that drives both understanding and real and meaningful action. This ensures we remain responsive to broader societal needs, providing the groundwork for partnerships that lead to meaningful change. This is a key part of our role to move South Africa forward and the role we play in connecting learning with the future," said Dr Retha Langa, Group Head of Strategic Communications and Partnerships at the NetEd Group (which forms a part of Eduvos). 

“This platform reflects Eduvos’s commitment to shaping what we believe is our potential towards Africa’s prosperity by creating a space for knowledge sharing, learning, dialogue, and collaboration–all key elements in achieving long-lasting, positive impacts on communities and the continent,” she said. 

The Impact Platform expands our long-standing mission to equip students with the tools and knowledge to become changemakers in Africa. This platform will provide insight into our institution's contributions to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the African Union’s Agenda 2063, aligning our educational focus with global priorities for sustainable growth and development. 

By integrating sustainability, inclusivity, and innovation into our academic and operational strategies, we are embedding impact at every level of our offerings. From reducing environmental footprints on campuses to fostering community partnerships, this approach enhances our commitment to advancing Africa’s prosperity through holistic and practical education–all forming part of our campus-of-the-future model. 

An Ecosystem of Learning and Collaboration  
Through the Impact Platform, we invite students, partners, and communities to engage in open conversations about Africa’s future and co-create solutions for our most pressing challenges. This space will foster partnerships aimed at promoting economic growth, gender equality, access to quality education, and other critical development goals. 

Advancing Eduvos’s Role in Sustainable Development 
The launch of the Impact Platform is part of our broader strategic vision of educating a future generation that is equipped to tackle both local and global challenges. This includes integrating sustainability into curricula and driving resource efficiency by finding innovative solutions on our campuses. In so doing, we are preparing students to not only succeed in their careers but also contribute to sustainable, impactful growth in their respective fields. 

In today’s evolving job market, employers are increasingly seeking graduates with a sustainability mindset and the skills to lead change within organisations. This platform ensures students receive a future-oriented education that makes them highly competitive, responsive to societal needs, and empowered to drive impactful change. 

As we continue to innovate and evolve, the launch of the Impact Platform stands as a working example of our ongoing dedication to Africa’s future. By embedding sustainability, collaboration, and meaningful dialogue into every aspect of our work, we are laying the groundwork for a more prosperous, sustainable Africa.
