Dear MUT Staff and Students
Warm greetings to the Mangosuthu University of Technology (MUT) community on this special occasion of Africa Day, 25 May 2025. This year, we come together under the theme: “Educate an African Fit for the 21st Century: Building Resilient Education Systems for Increased Access to Inclusive, Lifelong, Quality, and Relevant Learning in Africa.”
This powerful theme reminds us of the importance of education as a catalyst for transformation across the continent. It calls on all of us—students, educators, and leaders—to champion education systems that are innovative, inclusive, and adaptable to the ever-evolving global landscape.
At MUT, we are proud to join hands with our fellow institutions across Durban in commemorating this memorable event. On Friday, 30 May 2025, our students will collaborate with peers from all Durban universities to celebrate Africa’s diversity, unity, and potential through cultural showcases, academic discussions, and community engagement initiatives.
Let this Africa Day be a moment of reflection and pride as we honour our heritage and commit ourselves to shaping a brighter, more empowered future for all Africans.
Happy Africa Day!
United in our diversity, stronger in our unity
