In recent years, Africa has witnessed a troubling surge in unemployment among university graduates. This alarming trend is directly linked to the rapid increase in the youth population and in higher education enrolments across the continent. In light of this challenge, a growing chorus of stakeholders-including governments, the private sector and international development organisations-has urged higher education institutions, particularly universities, to take decisive action. One key strategy in this respect is fostering collaboration between universities and businesses. This book draws on multiple case studies to illustrate how leveraging knowledge commercialisation in cooperation with start-ups and companies, facilitating talent transfer, and promoting active academic engagement with industry can significantly bolster the employability of African graduates.With contributions byMuhammed A.
