February 1-2, Accra | February 3-4, Lagos | February 5, Abuja
Building on our experience delivering structured high school engagement initiatives across India, Sri Lanka, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia, Zista EdVentures introduces a focused West Africa engagement series for 2027.
West Africa, particularly Nigeria and Ghana, represents a rapidly emerging student market for international education. Driven by strong academic ambition, increasing international mobility, and limited domestic capacity, students in this region are actively exploring global pathways particularly in the UK and Europe.
At the same time, key cities such as Lagos and Accra host a well-established network of international schools offering IB, A-Level, and Cambridge curricula, supported by experienced university counsellors. These schools produce globally aligned, academically strong students who are actively evaluating international opportunities.
The West Africa High School Engagement Series is designed to enable institutions to engage with this audience through structured, in-school interactions, facilitating meaningful conversations with students and building relationships with key counsellors at an early stage of the decision-making journey.
