520 _aThis book delves into the role of higher education as a means of sustainable development in Sub-Saharan Africa. Contributions from across the region examine the strategies and technological advances available to enable educands to deal with an uncertain future and are organised under two key themes: Curriculum and Teaching and Higher Education and Innovations. The volume brings together theoretical and practical perspectives, relating them to international benchmarks while maintaining the specificities of the African context. It will be of interest to students and scholars as well as practitioners whose work interrogates higher education, quality assurance, and sustainable development goals. Peter Neema-Abooki is a Professor of Higher Educational Management Studies and Development/Business and Management in Uganda, with academic connections in South Africa and Namibia. He is an Alumnus of DIES-National Multiplication Trainings (NMT), University of Potsdam, Germany; and has accordingly conducted a training of trainers (ToT) at Namibia University (UNAM). His other books include Quality Assurance in Higher Education in Eastern and Southern Africa: Regional and Continental Perspectives, and Quality Assessment and Enhancement in Higher Education in Africa.
