This book addresses current and pertinent issues in adult, community, and lifelong education and development presenting a distinctive and timely focus on Africa. Drawing from a variety of theoretical, methodological, and personal experiences from astute researchers from different parts of the continent, this book re-conceptualises adult, community and lifelong education from a western perspective to a more Afrocentric and indigenous approach to understanding and solving problems in the field. It attempts to fill that gap by placing emphasis on the history of adult, lifelong and community education, its organization and management, and the philosophical and socioeconomic context within which adult, community and lifelong education is provided. This edited book is a comprehensive collection of cutting edge research and analyses of various concepts in the field and offers in-depth explanations from diverse viewpoints. For ease of reference, this book is organized into 17 chapters with each chapter covering a topical issue in a diverse, multifaceted field. All the chapters were subjected to a rigorous review process. Firstly, by the editors before those that met the initial pre-screening were sent to two other reviewers. These steps were taken to ensure that the chapters were within the scope of the book as well as meeting the set standards. The submissions which did not meet the set standards and/or did not fall within the scope of the book were rejected. The ones that were recommended for inclusion by the reviewers were sent to the authors to correct and resubmit. The corrected chapters from the authors were put together as the manuscript which was submitted to an accredited language editor for editing before finally submitting to the publisher. The contributions are on five African countries with all the contributors from Africa. Consequently, this book differs from many publications about African countries written by non-Africans." Although all the chapters focus on African countries, the scholarly and rigorous discussion by the authors may appeal to international audiences in the field of adult, lifelong and community education.
