Summary: | This study is a follow-up to the Higher
Education for Francophone Africa's Development
Conference, held from June 13 to 15, 2006 in Ouagadougou at
the initiative of the World Bank in collaboration with the
Government of Burkina Faso, the French Ministry of Foreign
Affairs, and the Agence Universitaire de la Francophonie. It
continues and expands upon discussions that took place
during that event. This study includes two sections. The
first analyzes the expenditure for the higher education in
the countries of French-speaking Africa by adopting a dual
comparison approach: (i) chronologically, for the last 15
years, and (ii) inter alia, in particular juxtaposing
French-speaking Africa compared to other developing regions.
The second part presents financial simulation models in
regard to national higher education development plans for
the countries of French-speaking Africa. |
