520 _aThis volume explores educational transformation as a tool for community development in northern Uganda, with an emphasis on student-centred, hybrid and problem-based learning. It addresses key questions about existing education systems, the need for transformation, desired outcomes and foreseeable challenges. The introductory chapter contextualises the reforms within Uganda's colonial history, while subsequent chapters analyse institutional practices, curriculum design, quality of education and innovation in teaching and learning. The book argues for new participatory learning infrastructures, real-world problems and curricular entrepreneurship to enhance graduates' employability and position them as active contributors to community development. The book is the result of a long-term partnership between universities.
