The ACDE invites scholars, students, practitioners, policymakers, instructional designers, diplomats and industry partners to submit papers for its 2027 International Conference, taking place from 12 to 16 April 2027 in Cape Town, South Africa. The conference will explore how open distance learning institutions and those who venture into this space are rethinking anew sciences for Africa in the current geopolitics and exponential age.

Located in the heart of Cape Town's central business district, the CTICC offers world class conference facilities, modern meeting spaces, and convenient access to hotels, restaurants, cultural attractions, and transport links.
