| dc.description.abstract | States regard universities as national think tanks providing strategic leadership in new knowledge generation and developing innovative solutions to societal problems. Institutional objectives of any university include teaching, research and service to society. Universities are thus central for the advancement of knowledge, generation and development of human capital, and innovations aimed at solving societal challenges and sustainable development. In a fast-changing world due to population growth, technological transformations, emerging and re-emerging diseases and increased mobility, the key challenge to universities is how to remain relevant in meeting societal expectations. The article highlights key challenges experienced by higher education institutions (HEIs), especially in health education, and proposes strategies that would help transform HE institutions in LICs for the future. | en_US |
