Strengthening education systems in Africa
One of the few books I’ve bought in the last year is The Changing Landscape of Education in Africa: Quality, Equality and Democracy edited by David Johnson. It has 8 chapters which
argue that quality, equity and democratic accountability are inseparable objectives in the quest to strengthen and improve educational systems in the developing world.
In addition to a general chapter about education in Sub-Saharan Africa, the countries dealt with in the volume are Nigeria, Gambia, Kenya, South Africa (2 chapters), Cameroon and Namibia.
