Africa Dyslexia Conference 2025
In many parts of Africa, kids and adults with dyslexia and other learning differences struggle in school and at work. That’s because most schools don’t understand how they learn. This can lead to teasing, dropping out of school, and not getting good jobs later on.Â
Africa Dyslexia Conference 2025 aims to change that narrative. As the continent’s high-level gathering focused on learning differences, this two-day event brings together over 350 people like education leaders, business professionals, researchers, and youth advocates, health professionals, parents to talk about how Africa can better support people with learning differences like dyslexia.
This conference will serve as a catalyst for regional policy reform, education transformation, and workforce inclusion, setting a new benchmark for how Africa supports its neurodiverse population. With UNESCOÂ and UNICEF as strategic partners, the event will embed learning differences into wider conversations on literacy equity, social justice, and inclusive growth.
What is Dyslexia?
Dyslexia is a common learning difference that makes it hard to read, write, or spell even though a person may be very smart. People with dyslexia simply learn in a different way. Learning with dyslexia takes the right support, not just in school, but at home and at work, too.
