After years of prolonged war, beginning in the mid-1950s, among different political, tribal, and military factions, and with the Sudan, the South Sudan is now a full-fledged country. The country continues to deal with the legacy of colonialism, genocide, and oppression, and is involved in a civil war. As a result of this legacy, the country faces many challenges especially in the development of a social, political, and economic infrastructure which can develop into a democratic state and implement a viable public school system that can feed universities and technical schools. At this time, approximately 42% of the country","PeriodicalId":232875,"journal":{"name":"FIRE: Forum for International Research in Education","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115189497","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}

Our objective is to demonstrate this through a review of literature and legislative and policy instruments in Namibia. We complete the review with an in-depth analysis of key informant interviews on coordination in Namibia.

{"title":"Women's Rising Share of Tertiary Enrollment: A Cross-National Analysis","authors":"A. McDaniel","doi":"10.18275/FIRE201401021016","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18275/FIRE201401021016","url":null,"abstract":"In recent decades, a dramatic shift occurred in higher education throughout the world. Women now enroll in and complete more education than men in the majority of countries. Using a lagged cross-sectional design on a dataset of 75 countries from 1990 to 2008, this study examines the predictors of the current gender gap in tertiary enrollment. I find that prior arguments developed by neo-institutionalist theorists do predict the gender gap in tertiary enrollment to some degree. Countries that have historically supported women's rights and experienced more rapid educational expansion are linked to a larger share of women enrolled in tertiary education than men. However, countries with greater memberships in IGOs and INGOs do not influence women's share of higher education enrollment. Additionally, fertility rates are important predictors of women's share of tertiary enrollment. Countries with lower fertility rates are associated with a larger female share of higher education. The results support the hypotheses that both neo-institutionalists arguments and fertility norms shape the female-favorable gender gap in tertiary enrollment throughout the world. ??? ?????????? , ?? ?????? ????? ?????? ?? ??????? ?????? ?????? . ????????? ?? ??? ?????? ???? ?? ????? ?? ????? ??? ??????? ?? ????? ??? ???? ?????? ???? . 1990-2008 ??? 75 ????? ?? ?? ??????? ?? ?? lagged ??? ?? ???????? ?????? ?? ????? ????, ?? ?????? ?????? ??????? ??? ??????? ?????? ???? ?? ????????????? ?? ??? ???? ?? . ??? ?? ?????????? ????????????? ?????? ?????? ????? ???? ??? ?? ?? ?????? ??????? ??? ?????? ???? ?? ?????????? ???? ???. ???????? ?????? ?? ??????? ?? ???????? ?? ?????? ???? ?? ???? ???? ?? ?????? ?? ??????? ????? ???? ?? ?? ??? ?? ??????? ?? ????? ??? ?????? ?????? ??? ?????? ??????? ?? ?? ???? ?????? ?? ????? ???. ???????, IGOs ??
