Our next MoMo, to be hosted by organizers of eLearning Africa[1] at Speke Resort Munyonyo, will feature international speakers who have travelled to Uganda to present their views, based on experiences working in Africa. Mobility is a key component to affordability, accessibility and utility. With extremely rich learning content such as Khan Academy YouTube videos, CK12 textbooks in maths, science, chemistry, biology, GCFLearnfree - now widely available off line under Creative Commons licenses. Could newer methodologies as the "Flipped Classroom" that have stimulated higher levels of engagement between students and teachers, and learning materials in the West, be of even greater benefit to students and teachers in Africa?  And what are the prospects that such efficacies in the learning process hold for Africa's next generation of leaders? 
What role does the mobile play in the evolution and distribution of eLearning; what progress has been made; what are the bottlenecks and how can we overcome them?  "Africa faces an important debate about how to make the most of the new climate of opportunity and define a new narrative."
 Come listen to thought leaders in this exciting new world of learning, and be prepared to share your own ideas.
