Designing Education Policy for Sub-Saharan African Countries

Designing Education Policy for Sub-Saharan African Countriesis the culmination of five years of extensive research and analysis of global educational systems as they compare with the challenges and opportunities in Sub-Saharan Africa, with a lens on Southern Cameroons. As African youths demonstrate purpose and a desire for sovereignty and self-governance, quality education remains critical in realizing these aspirations. Drawing from over 35 years of experience as an educator on various continents, Elizabeth Bifuh-Ambe courageously confronts the complex interactions of education with colonialism and other systems that perpetuate inequalities within the continent. She highlights the transformative power of education as a source of cultural pride and a conduit for socio-economic development that is essential if Africa must break free from historical patterns of dependency in the ongoing fight for genuine independence.
