About Us

Welcome to the D-PEERS Project!

D-PEERS (Digital Pathways for Education, Empowerment, and Resilient Skills) is an Erasmus+ Capacity Building in Higher Education (CBHE) project dedicated to advancing digital transformation in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Sub-Saharan Africa, with a particular focus on Zambia and South Africa.

The project addresses critical gaps in digital infrastructure, access to technology, and digital skills development that hinder students and educators from fully participating in modern digital education. Through close cooperation between European and African universities, D-PEERS strengthens institutional capacity, enhances digital teaching and learning practices, and promotes inclusive, accessible, and high-quality digital education.

Our mission is to empower students, educators, and institutions with the competencies, tools, and strategies needed to thrive in the digital era and to build resilient higher education systems that leave no learner behind.
