Designing Education Policy for Sub-Saharan African Countries: A Comparative Analysis of Global Systems, with Focus on Southern Cameroons

Elizabeth Bifuh-Ambe's book, Designing Education Policy for Sub-Saharan African Countries, focuses on the challenges faced by the English-speaking Southern Cameroons region within Cameroon. The author argues that the current educational system is inadequate, hindering students' development and limiting their potential. Drawing inspiration from global education models, Bifuh-Ambe proposes a hybrid approach that combines indigenous African values with Western tenets. This approach aims to empower Southern Cameroons and, more broadly, Sub-Saharan African countries by fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and innovation. The book highlights the need for a transformative education policy to bridge the socioeconomic gap between developed and developing nations and ensure Africa's active participation in global affairs.
