    African Regional Interest Group Virtual Meeting 2021 JUNE 28 - 30 AfRIG2021.org #AFRIG @IntPharmacoEpi Presented in conjunction with MURIA Welcome to AfRIG On behalf of the International Society for Pharmacoepidemiology (ISPE), the Africa Regional Interest Group (AfRIG) and the Medicines Utilizations Research in Africa (MURIA) Group, we welcome you to ISPE AfRIG and MURIA’s virtual conference on Pharmacoepidemiology and medicines utilization in Africa. The conference theme: “Building research Dr. Kwame Appenteng capacity in Pharmacoepidemiology for healthcare Chair, ISPE Africa systems in Africa: Data Networks and Analytics to Support Patient Care and Medical Products Policy” is timely given the increasing interest in Pharmacoepidemiology training and research in recent years and propelled by the COVID-19 pandemic. Several African countries are in the process of developing healthcare databases that could potentially be utilized for patient-centered research purposes. Globally, there is growing use of real-world data for health-related research, and for regulatory decision-making regarding the safety and effectiveness of marketed medicinal products and devices. This is therefore an exciting scientific meeting, which draws on the collective Prof. Brian Godman knowledge and experience of a multi-disciplinary MURIA panel of leading global experts, to share and gain insights into ongoing scientific research in Africa, explore pharmacoepidemiology opportunities for the African continent, and to find avenues for collaborative scientific research work for the benefit of patients in Africa. We hope you enjoy every session of the conference.

    A Report on the Mapping Study of Peace & Security Engagement In

    A Report on the Mapping Study of Peace & Security Engagement in African Tertiary Institutions Written by Funmi E. Vogt This project was funded through the support of the Carnegie Corporation About the African Leadership Centre In July 2008, King’s College London through the Conflict, Security and Development group (CSDG), established the African Leadership Centre (ALC). In June 2010, the ALC was officially launched in Nairobi, Kenya, as a joint initiative of King’s College London and the University of Nairobi. The ALC aims to build the next generation of scholars and analysts on peace, security and development. The idea of an African Leadership Centre was conceived to generate innovative ways to address some of the challenges faced on the African continent, by a new generation of “home‐grown” talent. The ALC provides mentoring to the next generation of African leaders and facilitates their participation in national, regional and international efforts to achieve transformative change in Africa, and is guided by the following principles: a) To foster African‐led ideas and processes of change b) To encourage diversity in terms of gender, region, class and beliefs c) To provide the right environment for independent thinking d) Recognition of youth agency e) Pursuit of excellence f) Integrity The African Leadership Centre mentors young Africans with the potential to lead innovative change in their communities, countries and across the continent. The Centre links academia and the real world of policy and practice, and aims to build a network of people who are committed to the issue of Peace and Security on the continent of Africa.

    The Role of Private Higher Education Provision in Zambia: Changing the Higher Education Landscape in Africa

    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 8 • No. 6 • June 2018 doi:10.30845/ijhss.v8n6p11 The Role of Private Higher Education Provision in Zambia: Changing the Higher Education Landscape in Africa Daniel L. Mpolomoka, Z Ambian Open University AMBIA Selina Band Mbono Vision Dube Zambian Open University Akombelwa Muyangana University of Zambia Esther Kanduza, Zambian Maina Kaleba, Zambian Open University Abstract This paper is anchored on the assumption that the world is approaching the end of two important international initiatives, the Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2014) and the Millennium Development Goals (2015). Given such a scenario, Africa is gaining increased attention due to the innumerable challenges it faces in striving to achieve sustainable development. There is unanimity that African countries should improve their capacities to cope with emerging challenges. As a result, their higher education institutions need to drastically improve their own educational programmes and associated research facilities for training future generations of skilled personnel. This paper concludes by making critical observations on the general populace’s expectations of private higher education learning institutions. Keywords: Private higher education, Africa, Zambia, Learning Introduction The world we live in is radically changing from that of a couple of decades ago. It is an era of globalization, with growth of economic and social activities across national boundaries being common features. Berdahl (2008) outlines some of the major changes today, which include technological revolution in communications (the internet and large‐scale computerized information systems). Given such circumstances, both public and private institutions of higher learning face many challenges of local, national and global context.
