In particular, the discussion is intended to articulate how Africa's universities can support the generation of much-needed employment opportunities by providing education and training in entrepreneurship. The chapter first examines the prevailing entrepreneurial ecosystem, (i) by providing context from the available literature on the demographic challenge Africa faces in light of its rapidly-growing youth population and associated high unemployment rates and (ii) by exploring the means by which entrepreneurship can be fostered. Thereafter, the chapter focuses on working models of education and training in entrepreneurship, including intentions and adaptations, real-world successes, lessons learned and potential future directions.","PeriodicalId":230936,"journal":{"name":"Transforming tertiary agricultural education in Africa","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123258832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Agriculture's institutional ecosystem has varied across time and throughout Africa, as well as in relation to its colonial origins. The discussion principally focuses on the main trends, occasionally noting regional differences. The timeline is divided into three periods. Following an overview of the structure of the institutional ecosystem, Section 3.3 describes the post-independence period to the mid-1980s and Section 3.4 analyzes the succeeding period to approximately 2005, which was dominated by structural adjustment and market liberalization programmes. Section 3.5 reviews the rapid changes which occurred after 2005, framed in terms of the institutional linkages necessary to achieve the subsidiary functions outlined above most effectively and, hence, the role of tertiary agricultural education (TAE) in an evolving agricultural innovation system. The implications for TAE are highlighted throughout the chapter.","PeriodicalId":230936,"journal":{"name":"Transforming tertiary agricultural education in Africa","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124225937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main developmental agendas discussed, which anchor the transformation of African agriculture and education, are the global Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Africa-focused Agenda 2063. Agenda 2063 is supported by the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP) and the Continental Education Strategy for Africa, 2016-2025 (CESA), which provide clear strategies for transforming Africa's agricultural and education sectors. Supporting these policy frameworks are strategies which focus on enhancing human capital development in agriculture, as well as promoting science, technology and innovation (STI) in agriculture. These strategies and frameworks - including the Science, Technology and Innovation Strategy for Africa 2024 (STISA) and the Agricultural Education and Skills Improvement Framework (AESIF) - are explored in greater depth.","PeriodicalId":230936,"journal":{"name":"Transforming tertiary agricultural education in Africa","volume":"138 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121443570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
