ABSTRACTA healthy and skilled workforce is at the heart of Africa’s economic and social transformation agenda and countries with leading institutions of higher learning are among the most diversified economies in Africa. This paper examines the gaps in the performance of Africa’s higher learning institutions, identifies structural barriers to transformation and proposes better utilization of information technology to meet the emerging needs for equity and access.
