Abstract

Using Zimbabwe as a case country to analyse the past and present developments and policy changes in higher education will provide useful learning points. Zimbabwe is one of the best examples of a country that managed to maintain the reputation of its higher education despite additional challenges, notably economic downturn, demonisation and international isolation. This chapter uses a notion of philosophy of higher education system to examine how the developments, policy pronouncements, and innovative approaches undertaken to overcome challenges and leverage opportunities to transform higher education for social relevance, economic development, and to serve its people better. It is briefly argued that Zimbabwean (philosophy) of higher education is inextricably connected to quality education.
