If the African academy is broken, how can it be reimagined? In this bonus episode with Prof. Wandia Njoya, we pick up our conversation on how to build alternative systems that encourage intellectual freedom and critical thinking. We examine the unique history of the university system in Kenya, alongside broader challenges across Africa, exploring the tension between government control and the public's need for universities as engines of social mobility. The conversation also touches on popular GenZ-led protests and the politicisation of universities amidst the depoliticisation of students. Visit our website to learn more about the Mawazo Institute.
