Quatrième de couverture

Service Learning in Africa

Pathways to Social Transformation

This book offers a theoretically grounded and empirically informed analysis of Service Learning (SL) as a pedagogical framework for transforming higher education in African contexts. It responds to ongoing concerns regarding the limited social relevance of university education by examining how community-engaged, experiential learning can bridge the divide between academic knowledge and lived realities. Anchored in African philosophical traditions - particularly Ubuntu and related communitarian frameworks - the study situates SL within broader debates on decolonizing knowledge, human development, and socially responsive pedagogy. The volume integrates conceptual analysis, methodological frameworks, and selected case studies from across African higher education institutions. It examines models of implementation, curriculum integration, ethical community engagement, assessment practices, and institutionalization strategies. Particular attention is given to the intersections between SL, social innovation, sustainable development, and Catholic educational thought.
