Obreal participates in the first IUCEA meeting held in Kinshasa

Obreal took part in a meeting of the Inter-University Council for East Africa (IUCEA) held for the first time in Kinshasa, following the accession of the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the East African Community (EAC) in 2022. The event brought together institutional and academic representatives to discuss regional integration processes in higher education.

During the meeting, participants addressed issues related to the convergence of university systems, interregional cooperation and the challenges arising from the expansion of the EAC, while maintaining the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s links with the Central African region. This dialogue provided an opportunity to explore cooperation frameworks in a changing regional context.

Obreal’s participation in this IUCEA meeting in Kinshasa offered an opportunity to consolidate its institutional presence as a trusted partner in higher education regional integration processes.
