Abstract

It is argued that a major development challenge for Africa is a lack of skilled professionals to manage institutions, which tertiary education can address. A reinvigorated focus on higher education on the continent has led to new universities with innovative approaches, often with a pan-African ethos, but in a post-COVID world financial barriers and a lack of clear information remain significant obstacles.
