Over the last year, INASP has been gathering learning with a number of its partners in three countries – Ethiopia, Tanzania and Uganda – to identify, explicitly, what needs to be done within the higher education (HE) and research sector to address the issue of gender parity in a systemic way and permanent way.
The dialogues identified a threefold strategy orchestrated largely by higher education institutions/ research institutes which address issues that are (1) internal to the university, (2) external to and influenceable by the university, (3) as part of a multi-university/research institution learning alliance such as the ones that were formed during the dialogues in the three countries.
