Abstract:
The relationship between U.S private foundations and African universities is both dynamic and complex, and operates within the context of international development. This study argues that, in this particular case, donor-recipient relationships are power relations that are unequal and this inequality has a bearing on projects’ design, implementation, outcome, and sustainability, and ultimately impact on the development agenda. Embedded processes and institutional factors offer plausible explanations for resistance or openness to change within the partnering institutions. The study argues for the need to address inequity in partnerships for better results.

At tempts to reverse past injustices included measures to address racial inequities for tndividuals with limited access to higher education at one level, and at another fo used on institutional discrimination through unequal funding of institutions based on the racial groupings they were designated to serve. This led to policies to provide tnstitutional redress. Two periods are examined under two different Ministers ofEdu ation and provide information on different strategies, levels of commitment, and degrees of success. The pre-democracy period to 1994 shaped the debate around redress and acceptance of policies to establish equity in society. Political realities post-1994 reshaped the debate, institutional redress faltered, and the focus on indi vidual redress was prioritised with the establishment of a student f...

What is disturbing is that there is a lot of talking and very little action. Is it not time to move away from the descriptions of issues to actions, toward alternative solutions needed and to the implementation of those recommendations? This chapter seeks to address equity issues and what it means to strive to reach equity in an unequal world. My focus is higher education in Africa, with some reference to other aspects of the education system. Some of the issues I raise are also applicable in the other sectors of education. There is continuing tension between access for social justice and limited access targeting development goals and priority areas contributing directly to development.

In addition it wants to examine the way interactions between these levels affect adaptation processes. It aims at applying general social science concepts and theories as well as testing theories in the field of higher education research. It wants to do so in a manner that is of relevance to all those professionally involved in higher education, be it as ministers, policy-makers, politicians, institutional leaders or administrators, higher education researchers, members of the academic staff of universities and colleges, or students. It will include both mature and developing systems of higher education, covering public as well as private institutions.

Pedagogical issues to be addressed relate to access, teaching and learning, quality, and research within distance and cyberspace education. The paper will further analyse the gender dimension in cyberspace education in South Africa. Our paper limits itself to cyberspace teaching and learning as a process that takes place using the Internet or the World Wide Web, or uses some digital information and communications technology (ICT). We understand ICT to be a broad concept that includes all forms of electronic communications in both digital and analogue forms. Pedagogical issues in this paper are covered in a broader context, but our analyses of gender issues is limited to cyberspace education. Some literature refers to latter modes of learning as "e-learning" (Bates 2001). Different people have defined the concept, and the more common definition is that cy...

This has been given a specific platform with the guest-edited issue “Voices from Around the Globe” which is the result of a collaboration with the International Association of Student Affairs and Services (IASAS), and particularly with the guest editors, Kathleen Callahan and Chinedu Mba.In this respect, we are pleased that the present issue highlights the intersection of global and local issues in Student Affairs, and of debates around local professionalisation and epistemic-discursive communities of practice in Student Affairs. Global and local issues are not so much about the spatial but the framework and lens of Student Affairs, which simultaneously aim to be locally relevant and embedded, and globall...

Globally, there is a strong focus on enhancing student engagement and support through programmes, clubs, and extracurricular activities, aiming to foster personal growth, a sense of belonging, transferable skills and competences. Student mental health and wellness have become a priority, with colleges and universities expanding counselling services and providing resources to address the growing mental health challenges among students. Other forms of counselling, advising, as well as peer support, have also moved closer to the centre. Additionally, there is an increasing emphasis on creating inclusive campus environments through diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, which aim to promote equity, social justice, and support underrepresented student populations. Career development and employability are also key areas, with student affairs departments collaborating with career services offices on and off campuses to provide students with resources for career exploration and job placements. Lastly, the integration of technology and digital engagement has allowed student affairs professionals to connect with students through online platforms, virtual advising, and social media strategies. Many of these developments have been enhanced and accelerated by the experience of the Covid-19 pandemic. Student affairs in Africa mirrors these developments closely as it continues to adapt to the changing needs and expectations of students on the continent. At the same time, student affairs professionals in Africa and the global South more broadly, face unique contextual challenges in their work. Limited financial resources and infrastructure, unequal access to technology, and socioeconomic disparities, all pose obstacles to providing comprehensive student support services. Creatively involving students in the provision of student experiences and services is increasingly becoming a recognised feature in African student affairs (Holtzhausen & Wahl, 2022).

Abstract:
The relationship between U.S private foundations and African universities is both dynamic and complex, and operates within the context of international development. This study argues that, in this particular case, donor-recipient relationships are power relations that are unequal and this inequality has a bearing on projects’ design, implementation, outcome, and sustainability, and ultimately impact on the development agenda. Embedded processes and institutional factors offer plausible explanations for resistance or openness to change within the partnering institutions. The study argues for the need to address inequity in partnerships for better results.
