Abstract

The quality of higher education is currently the main challenge of public policies for higher education and research in many countries and regions of the world. Since their independence, African countries have made several efforts to ensure the quantitative aspects of higher education. But the big challenge concerns the qualitative aspects allowing to generate significant impacts of this sector for economic and social development. This chapter aims to analyze the current trends of quality assurance of higher education in the African region. Also, it plans to discuss constraints that affect development, implementation, and promotion of quality assurance systems in this region. Finally, it plans to give future perspectives to develop effective quality assurance systems of higher education which take into account African specificities.
