Abstract
This presentation covers relationships between education/university curricula and the employment sector, specific to access to technology in African countries. It provides suggestions in response to cultural diversity and inclusion. Curriculum responsiveness requires engaging a relation between a familiar cultural context, which has been internalised, and the unfamiliar cultural-institutional context of a university, which has not yet been internalised.
