The East African Community is one of the fastest growing regional
integration block. With a population of more than 136 million there are
numerous opportunities accruing as a result of Integration.
Students can exploit opportunities in the following areas:
1. Education
2. Employment
3. Trade and investment
4. Tourism
5. Intercultural exchange
It is imperative for University administrations to embed the EAC
integration in their curriculum and extra curriculum activities.
To begin with, this is a petition to all Universities to include the EAC
Week in the respective institution's annual calenders. The EAC Week
will create a platform for students, the University administration, the
senates and policy makers to increase their awareness, knowledge and
understanding of the opportunities presented by the EAC integration and
how they can tap into the benefits.
The steady growth of this initiative indicates a widespread recognition of the value that regional integration holds for our academic community. This momentum serves as a clear signal that students are prepared to engage with the opportunities inherent in the East African Community. We are now preparing to present these collective findings to the relevant university administrations.

This is long overdue honestly. Uni students need to know what is happening in the region if we want to get jobs after graduation.

Good idea. Students are completely clueless about regional trade and how it affects us. Please implement this.

Cant believe this isnt already part of the schedule. We are missing out on so many opportunities because nobody talks about it.

Needs to be done ASAP. Education should be about real world stuff like this.
