| dc.description.abstract | The role of higher education, as the broad sector of education that includes all postsecondary education including university and tertiary institutions, in development cannot be overlooked. In this paper, the discussion will specifically centre on universities and other degree-awarding institutions. Universities are of specific importance, since as a sub-sector they are mandated to produce knowledge through research and are the only institutions specialised in producing, reproducing and disseminating the new knowledge necessary for development (Cloete and Bunting 2016; Muriisa and Bacwayo 2014). Universities engage in research and searching for the knowledge required to move countries forward. In addition, they engage in research, community service, teaching and producing new generation scholars who can produce knowledge and disseminate knowledge through service to the community. As Kofi Annan indicated, universities have an important role to play in the transformation of African economies | en_US |
