Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The Sustainability of Higher Education in Sub-Saharan Africa: Quality Assurance Perspectives, edited by Neema-Aboki in Palgrave Macmillan’s Sustainable Development Goals Series, explores the role of higher education in sub-Saharan Africa’s sustainable development. Among other pertinent issues, the book explores how students in institutions of higher education might adjust to an uncertain future through technological advancements and methods. The book is organised under two themes: Curriculum and Teaching, and Higher Education and Innovations. Under these two broad themes, the book provides theoretical and practical perspectives on higher education in sub-Saharan Africa, relating them to international benchmarks while maintaining the specificities of the African context. The book therefore, contributes to the debates on inclusive and equitable quality education in line with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) which focuses on ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education, and promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all.
