The National Digital Education Conference 2025, hosted by afiDE Ghana in partnership with GSET, brought together a diverse group of education leaders, teachers, policymakers, and EdTech partners for a full day dedicated to shaping the future of digital education in Ghana.
The conference provided a platform for meaningful conversations, collaboration, and vision-sharing at a time when technology continues to transform the learning landscape.

These sessions explored emerging trends, practical strategies, and innovative models that schools can adopt to enhance teaching and learning. A major highlight was the official launch of the Leadership Academy, a new initiative developed by afiDE Ghana to equip school leaders across the country with essential digital competencies.
The Academy aims to strengthen leadership capacity by offering targeted training that empowers school heads to effectively integrate technology into educational environments.
