IEPA-UCC Signs MOU With APCEIU Towards SDG 4 Implementation

The Institute for Educational Planning and Administration (IEPA) at the University of Cape Coast has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Asia-Pacific Centre of Education for International Understanding (APCEIU) on promoting diverse collaborative activities for mutual benefit through cultural exchanges, information sharing, joint programme implementation, among others.
 
In a virtual signing ceremony, the Director-General of IEPA, Dr. Michael Boakye-Yiadom remarked that “IEPA is excited to be formalizing an existing relationship with APCEIU. This goes to demonstrate the seriousness both institutions attach to the relationship in working together to meeting SDG 4.”

He further indicated that IEPA cannot achieve its mandate alone without the collaboration of global partners and other UNESCO Category II Centres of Education, who have walked the path and can share insights to guide IEPA’s implementation of strategic thrust in West Africa.
 
The Director-General of APCEIU, Dr. Hyun Mook Lim, expressed gratitude to IEPA and its Director-General for taking the initiative to reach out to APCEIU for collaboration.

He stated that, “this MOU formalizes and strengthens our already existing relationship and we can implement together the UNESCO’s medium-Term Strategy for 2022-2029 (41C/4).”
