Terrorism has become a major concern of current governments. African countries are also involved in counter- terrorism but, due to several internal security and development problems, their effective participation in the combat against terrorism is very limited. They need capacity and skills in order to participate actively in countering terrorism. Education is one of the most appropriate ways for preparing African countries to prevent terrorism. Education provides not only knowledge but also capacity to make informed decisions, strategies and policies. The international community should help African countries to strengthen their education through specialized and general training programmes.
