African universities have been called upon to start contributing effectively to the United Nations’ 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that the continent is lagging behind on.
This will require a targeted approach of partnerships between governments, academia and industry, according to a universities vice-chancellors’ panel at the Southern African Regional Universities Association’s (SARUA’s) first digital colloquium titled ‘Regional Collaboration of Higher Education in the post-COVID-19 era’.
