A report on the launch workshop will be posted here on Saturday 1st June. Thursday  6th June we will also open the call for proposals and the needs and priorities survey on this site. Our first network activity will run in July. Members of the network will be invited to participate in the planning process for a learning agenda from mid 2013 – mid 2014. We expect to announce the learning agenda by August 2013. There will also be other opportunities for members to take on leadership roles in e/merge Africa.

In the meanwhile you can engage with us in the e/merge Africa Facebook group and on twitter with the hashtag #emergeafrica. If you want to join the e/merge Africa announcement e-mail list or have other queries please contact us at [email protected].
