๐ CERDAF Digitized and Reopened: A New Era for African Research in Bukavu, D.R. Congo!
In a groundbreaking collaboration with the Missionaries of Africa – Central Africa Province (PAC), Angaza Center is excited to announce the official reopening of the Center for African Research and Documentation (CERDAF) in Bukavu, D.R. Congo! Originally founded in the 1970s by Missionary Georges Defour, CERDAF has long been a hub for preserving and sharing African literature, culture, and history with the world.
Now, with the centerโs full digital transformation, weโre opening CERDAFโs doors to a broader community. This digital revolution at CERDAF will make it easier for students, educators, and the local community to access rich African literature and resources. Primary and secondary school students and teachers will benefit from sessions on digital education, while college and university students can enhance their research skills with the centerโs digital tools. The local religious community will gain essential digital skills, and the local administration is stepping in to promote digital literacy among the broader community.
