This book was released on 2004 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the twenty-first century unfolds, African universities, and indeed universities everywhere, are undergoing unprecedented change and confronting multiple challenges brought about by the vast and complex processes of globalisation and technological change. Powerful internal and external forces - political, pecuniary and paradigmatic - are reconfiguring all aspects of university life constituted around the triple mission of teaching, research and service. The need for redefining the role and defending the importance of universities has never been greater. How are African universities trying to balance the demands of autonomy and accountability, expansion and excellence, equity and efficiency, diversification and differentiation, internationalisation and indigenisation in the face of liberalisation and privatisation, and as they address the new challenges of knowledge production and dissemination, of Africanising global scholarship and globalising African scholarship? What innovative approaches can they adopt to facilitate the sustainable development of African economies, societies and polities? The two volumes in the Codesria Book Series address these issues. They articulate new values and missions for African universities, and define effective strategies to meet the challenges. Written by some of Africa's leading educators , Volume I examines the implications of the neo-liberal reforms and the new information technologies on African higher education, while Volume II interrogates the changing social dynamics of knowledge production, university organisation, and public service and engagement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the role of the emerging African nations in the new international order of the twenty-first century. Since the end of the Cold War, little significance has been placed on the African continent in the security and political considerations of the Western world. However, post-9/11 international security has been redefined, and new challenges have been identified. Thus, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, Africa is facing a variety of new security challenges. Africa has become an increasingly important battleground in the fight against terrorism. Since the beginning of 2011, the new revolutions, now known as the Arab Spring, that swept through North Africa have created new challenges for the African continent and are compounding the African peoples’ struggles for poverty alleviation, state stability, security, socio-political and socio-economic development, democracy, and good governance. In addition to these crises of civil war, ethnic conflict, state insecurity, and rampant corruption at all levels, the HIV/AIDS pandemic has ravaged the continent for the past four decades. The only major pan-African organization—the African Union—is unable to lead and defend the continent effectively. At this crucial period when the continent is confronted with these myriad of security challenges, it needs effective, strong leadership that possesses both human and natural resources to play a leadership role in Africa and lead the continent in the new global order of the twenty-first century. The contributors to this volume analyze many of these issues and place them in the wider context of global security.

This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2019 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Region: Africa, grade: 8.0, Obafemi Awolowo University, language: English, abstract: This study examines the nature and effect of corruption regarding the continual strike of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) in Nigeria. In order to guide this study, the author focuses on four research questions and a research hypothesis. A standard question was used as the major instrument for data collection from 100 officials of the three labour unions, ASUU, NASU and SSANU of Obafemi Awolowo University. These three groups are the main actors in industrial relations within the university system. 35 ASUU officials, 35 SSANU officials and 30 NASU officials were randomly selected using a random sampling technique. The study concluded with a recommendation that the government should increase allocation to the Nigerian education sector in order to ensure the country’s education standard. Furthermore, the government should create a forum where prominent stakeholders of the two factions can meet continually to discuss matters of concern. Regardless of the numerous advantages of university education in Nigeria, the educational sector still faces numerous challenges. Corruption is one of the major factors that have deterred the Nigerian educational sector from achieving optimum results and meeting up the requirements of the 21st century. It has led to an unprecedented level of industrial unrest and many official assaults.

Download or read book Higher Education Leadership and Governance in the Development of the Creative and Cultural Industries in Kenya written by Emily Akuno and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2017-05-05 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of higher education in establishing structures and procedures in society and industry is clearly articulated in scholarly discussions. The narrative has recently taken a new momentum in Kenya with acknowledgement of the creative industry involves many youth, as an area that impacts on the economy. In unravelling the link between higher education and industry, the authors focus on leadership and governance in higher education and its expected and perceived contribution to the shaping of the creative industry. Through analysis of cases, the authors interrogate the processes and structures that govern the teaching and practice of the creative subjects, noting how these affect the creative industry in Kenya. This document approaches the creative disciplines from the perspectives of the students, lecturers and university administrators. The three voices provide a balanced view of what higher creative arts education in Kenya is. The multiple authorship of the book further provides a balanced account of the development of these disciplines in higher education, and their growth in industry. The key concepts here are the development of the creative industry and how higher education should contribute to the same.
