The Southern African Quality Assurance Network (SAQAN), the Council on Higher Education  South Africa (CHE-SA) and the University of Johannesburg (UJ) have embarked on an  exciting new venture which we hope will bring new energy, new ideas and a deeper level  of engagement with quality and quality assurance in higher education across the region,  the continent and the globe.  

The SAQAN Journal for Quality Assurance in Higher Education1 was launched at the recent  SAQAN Conference held in Zambia and we are now pleased to announce that the journal site, hosted by UJ Press is now live and open to receive submissions. 

The first call for papers is aligned to the theme of the SAQAN conference in Zambia, but  papers on any quality assurance topic will be considered. The due date for submission to the  inaugural volume is 31 January 2025. The theme of the 6th SAQAN Conference was: 

Strengthening and harmonising quality assurance in the SADC region and beyond through sharing experiences and good practices.
