The Inter-University Council for East Africa (IUCEA), together with the East African Higher Education Quality Assurance Network (EAQAN), held their 15th Annual Conference in Kigali, Rwanda, from 7th to 10th September 2026. This year’s edition was hosted by the Rwanda chapter in partnership with the Rwanda Higher Education Council, under the theme \u201cTransforming Quality Assurance for Future Ready Higher Education Systems in East Africa.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference brought together Heads of National Councils and Commissions, Vice Chancellors, officials of the Inter-University Council for East Africa, National Chapter Executive Committees, and quality assurance practitioners from across the East African Community, alongside development partners such as OBreal Global and UNESCO. Uganda Martyrs University was represented at the conference by the Vice Chancellor, Professor Patrick Edrin Kyamanywa, who joined fellow university heads and quality assurance leaders from the region for the four-day meeting, together with members of the Uganda Universities Quality Assurance Forum (UUQAF).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discussions at the conference centred on strengthening quality assurance systems, regional harmonisation, mobility and recognition of qualifications, digital transformation, artificial intelligence, data-driven quality assurance, institutional capacity, and stakeholder engagement. Resolutions from the meeting called for a shift away from framework development and periodic compliance towards coordinated implementation, trusted recognition, stronger regional mobility, continuous and risk-based quality assurance, responsible AI governance, reliable institutional data, digital transformation, human-capacity development, stronger industry engagement, equitable participation, and accountable human decision-making. The overall emphasis was on translating regional and institutional commitments into operational systems, measurable outputs, and improved quality assurance outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New EAQAN Executive Committee<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Every three years, an Executive Committee is elected into office at the Annual General Meeting. The Committee comprises the President, Vice President, General Secretary, Treasurer, and National Chapter Representatives from Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Somalia, Tanzania, and Uganda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new Executive Committee, which will steer the network from 2026 to 2029, includes Uganda Martyrs University’s own Director of Quality Assurance, Segawa Edward Katumba, who was voted into office as the Uganda Chapter Representative on the Committee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nationally, Segawa Edward Katumba serves as General Secretary of the Uganda Universities Quality Assurance Forum for 2026-29, and now also as the Country Representative on the East African Higher Education Quality Assurance Network for the same period. We congratulate him on this additional responsibility and wish him the very best as he continues to promote quality in higher education \u2014 at UMU, in Uganda, and now across East Africa as a region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
