Higher Education and Different Notions of Development

The article, "Higher Education and Different Notions of Development," in the current edition of the IIENetworker magazine examines the interactions between higher education and international development aid. Written by Nico Cloete from the Centre for Higher Education Transformation in South Africa, Peter Maassen from the University of Oslo, and Teboho Moja from New York University, the article is based on the findings of a long-term research project of the Higher Education Research and Advocacy Network in Africa. "In a world weaved together by a global economy, universities have become major players in supporting sustainable development," the authors write. "The university-as-the-engine-of-development model is driving national, regional and city development approaches." Read the full article here.
