The registered company address is: Gewerbestrasse 11, 6330 Cham, Switzerland Preface Climate change is a major global challenge. However, some geographical regions are more affected than others. One of these regions is the African continent. Due to a combination of unfavorable socioeconomic and meteorological conditions, African countries are particularly vulnerable to climate change and its impacts. The IPCC Special Report “Global Warming by 1.5 C” outlines the fact that maintaining global warming by 1.5 C is possible, but also points out that a 2 C increase could lead to crises in agriculture (rain-fed agriculture could decline by 50% in some African countries by 2020) and livestock, damage water supplies, and pose an additional threat to coastal areas. The IPCC also predicts that wheat could disappear from Africa by 2080 and that maize – a staple food – may decline significantly in southern Africa. In addition, arid and semi-arid soils are likely to increase by up to 8%, which will have serious implications for livelihoods, poverty reduction, and meeting the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Pursuing appropriate adaptation strategies is therefore crucial to meet the current and future challenges posed by climate change. Despite recent progress since the signing of the Paris Agreement in 2015 and the Katowice climate package in 2018, there is still much to be done to raise awareness on the relevance of climate issues for African nations. This process of awareness raising could be supported by specialized publications written by African experts (or by experts working in the region), based on the realities on the African continent, and comprehensively documenting and disseminating the many ideas, approaches, methods, and projects being implemented across Africa today. Based on the need to address the above issues that the African Handbook of Climate Change Adaptation has been produced. It discusses current thinking and presents some of the main issues and challenges related to climate change in Africa, as well as evidences from a wide range of studies and projects that show how climate change adaptation is being – and can continue to be – successfully implemented in African countries. Thanks to its scope and wide range of topics related to climate change, this book is intended to become a flagship publication on the subject. This handbook shares some of the latest research findings on climate change and its impacts in Africa. And apart from having provided senior African researchers and representatives from government and non-governmental organizations with a plat- form for the documentation and dissemination of their work, it provides an v vi Preface opportunity for young scholars from Africa to present their research and climate adaptation projects. Some special features of the publication are: 1. Over 100 scientific contributions written by African researchers and/or researchers based in Africa 2. All contributions have been peer reviewed by an international editorial team consisting of editors, associate editors, and reviewers 3. It represents all African regions and contexts, from North, East, and West Africa to Southern Africa. The body of information and knowledge which characterizes the African Hand- book of Climate Change Adaptation is of particular value to: early career and established researchers whose research and studies examine aspects related to climate change and climate change mitigation and adaptation in Africa; social institutions working on climate change and climate adaptation in Africa that need new information; nongovernmental organizations (NGOs); associations and compa- nies, especially from the finance and insurance sectors; government institutions (ministries of the environment, planning committees, etc.); international and national aid organizations; and other actors in Africa whose activities are affected by climate change. The handbook provides an overview of the impacts of climate change on the African continent and the methods currently being used to implement climate change adaptation. The experiences from the contributors will also be useful for interna- tional and regional experts working in the field of climate change and planning, as well as for all those interested in the linkages between climate change and climate adaptation. In order to support the training of a new generation of scientists, the African Handbook of Climate Change Adaptation will be especially used by young scientists (M.Sc. students, Ph.D. students, and postdoctoral students). And, as importantly, the fact that this publication is available via open access means that it is free and can be read and used by all those interested on matters related to climate change adaptation in Africa, without any costs. Here, the editors would like to thank the assistance provided by the German Ministry for International Cooperation (BMZ), whose support has made this possible. The editors would also like to thank the authors for their hard work, their patience during the peer-review process, and willingness to share their knowledge with a wide audience. Thanks are also due to the associate editors and reviewers for dedicating their time in the assessments of their manuscripts. Their support is greatly appreciated. We hope that the African Handbook of Climate Change Adaptation will support the regional and global efforts to assist African nations handle the many challenges posed by a changing climate.

  • University Education Finance and Cost Sharing in Nigeria: Considerations for Policy Direction
    0 University Education Finance and Cost Sharing in Nigeria: Considerations for Policy Direction 1Maruff A. Oladejo, 2Gbolagade M. Olowo, & 3Tajudeen A. Azees 1Department of Educational Management, University of Lagos, Akoka, 2Department of Educational Foundations, Federal College of Education (Sp), Oyo 3Department of Curriculum & Instructions, Emmanuel Alayande College of Education, Oyo 0 1 Abstract Higher education in general and university education in particular is an educational investment which brings with it, economic returns both for individuals and society. Hence, its proper funding towards the attainment of its lofty goals should be the collective responsibility of every stakeholders. This paper therefore discussed university education finance and cost sharing in Nigeria. The concepts of higher education and higher education finance were examined, followed by the philosophical and the perspectives of university education in Nigeria. The initiative of private funding of education vis-à-vis Tertiary Education Trust Fund (Tetfund) was brought to the fore. The paper further examined cost structure and sharing in Nigerian university system. It specifically described cost sharing as a shift in the burden of higher education costs from being borne exclusively or predominately by government, or taxpayers, to being shared with parents and students. Findings showed that Tetfund does not really provide for students directly. As regards students in private universities in Nigeria, and that private sector has never been involved in funding private universities. It was recommended among others that there is the need to re-engineer policies that will ensure effective financial accountability to prevent fiscal failure in Nigerian higher educational institutions, as well as policies which will ensure more effective community and individual participation such that government will be able to relinquish responsibility for maintaining large parts of the education system.

  • Quality Assurance Challenges and Opportunities Faced by Private Universities in Zimbabwe
    Journal of Case Studies in Education Quality assurance challenges and opportunities faced by private Universities in Zimbabwe Evelyn Chiyevo Garwe Zimbabwe Council for Higher Education ABSTRACT The study sought to provide an understanding of the quality assurance challenges and opportunities faced by private universities in Zimbabwe. The study analyzed the factors determining provision of quality higher education in private universities and the resultant effects of failing to achieve the minimum acceptable standards. The author employed the case study method which falls within the qualitative research paradigm. The major techniques used were documentary analysis, direct observation and participant observation by the author. The results showed that financial constraints and poor corporate governance were the major factors leading to failure by private universities to uphold high quality standards. The study also highlighted the need for an effective national quality assurance agency in making sure that only institutions with the necessary financial, material and human resources should be allowed to operate as private universities. Key words: Quality, quality assurance, private university, corporate governance Quality assurance challenges, Page 1 Journal of Case Studies in Education INTRODUCTION Private universities in Africa should be considered a potential growth industry, which may generate revenue, employment and other spillovers to the rest of the economy (Nyarko, 2001). In Zimbabwe, private universities started in 1992 in response to the need to fill in gaps in access to higher education. The legislative measures initiated to establish private institutions of higher education also opened doors for the entry of cross-border higher education which is offered through private providers. Kariwo (2007) reported that the private higher education sector in Zimbabwe contributed a small share of enrolments and programme offerings in higher education .

  • Higher Education Solutions Network (HESN) 2.0 Programs Bi-Annual Performance Report Narrative
    Higher Education Solutions Network (HESN) 2.0 Programs Bi-Annual Performance Report Narrative 1. BACKGROUND LASER PULSE is a five-year USAID-funded consortium, led by Purdue University and also comprising Catholic Relief Services, Indiana University, Makerere University, and the University of Notre Dame. LASER PULSE supports the research-to-translation value chain through a global network of 1,000+ researchers, government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and the private sector for research-driven, practical solutions to critical development challenges in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). LASER supports the discovery and uptake of research-sourced, evidence-based solutions to development challenges spanning all USAID technical sectors and global geographic regions. The LASER PULSE strategy ensures that applied research is co-designed with development practitioners, and results in solutions that are useful and usable. LASER does this by involving development practitioners upfront - from topic selection, research question definition, conducting and testing research, and developing translation products for immediate use. We support this process with capacity building and technical assistance to enable the researcher/user partnerships to function effectively. 2. MAJOR MILESTONES / ACHIEVEMENTS 1. Researcher Capacity:​ Makerere University had an opportunity to engage with ​USAID Uganda’s Regional Development Initiative​.​ ​The team accompanied the Uganda Regional Development Initiative team on several visits, to provide feedback on working with local universities in order to enhance their role in the path to self-reliance. This is a model that can be replicated in other countries and regions. The collaboration (Makerere and RDI) has resulted in a new buy-in opportunity for Makerere to work with regional universities in strengthening resilience for indigenous Ugandan groups).
