The 8th edition of Edves Catalyst, themed `Velocity with AI`, promises to be a groundbreaking event in the realm of education technology, as we consider how Artificial Intelligence would speedup quality classroom learning delivery in a direction of student attainment evidence within a given time. As an annual gathering for K-12 leaders, Edves Catalyst serves as a pivotal platform for over 5,000 educators, administrators, school owners, parents, and stakeholders from various African countries. The event aims to delve into actionable strategies for enhancing education quality and addressing both traditional and contemporary challenges faced in the sector. With a focus on leveraging technology as a catalyst, participants will explore innovative approaches to achieve short and long-term gains in education delivery.

At Edves Catalyst 2024, the spotlight will be on African teachers, school leaders, and government agencies as they come together to tackle the pressing issue of UNESCO's defined Learning Crisis. This crisis, where 8 out of 10 children struggle to pass age-appropriate numeracy and literacy exams, underscores the urgent need for transformative interventions in education. Through dynamic discussions, workshops, and presentations, participants will collaborate to devise effective solutions that harness the power of artificial intelligence to propel education forward.

As the world navigates unprecedented challenges, Edves Catalyst 2024 offers a unique opportunity for stakeholders to chart a course towards educational excellence. By fostering dialogue, sharing insights, and embracing technological innovations, attendees will play a crucial role in shaping the future of education in Africa. Together, let's accelerate the pace of progress and unlock the full potential of every learner, paving the way for a brighter tomorrow.
