Elisa Adams is the project coordinator of the Digital Initiative for African Centres of Excellence (DIGI-FACE). The project consortium consists of the University of Applied Sciences Kehl in Germany, Nelson Mandela University in Qeberha, South Africa, and Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg in Germany.
DIGI-FACE supports DAAD-funded African Excellence Centres in research, learning and teaching by providing training in the development of e-learning activities, offering cross-disciplinary e-learning modules and holding online events.
These modules are developed as Open Educational Resources (OER) and are offered via the online platform with the integrated Moodle Learning Management System (LMS): www.digiface.org.
The project is funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Ms Adams obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Political Sciences from Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and a Master of Arts in Intercultural Communication, focusing on Francophone regions, from Saarland University.
