The literature on innovation in Africa is rapidly expanding, and a recurring thread in the emergent literature is the pervasiveness of systemic weaknesses that inhibit the innovation process. Despite these, firms are able to innovate in Africa. It is then logical to ask: how do African firms manage to overcome the prevalent constraints and learn to innovate?
This book directly tackles this question, with a view to improving our understanding of the innovation landscape in Africa. The book brings together some of the latest innovation research from across the African continent, ranging from Tanzania and Ethiopia in the east to Nigeria in the west. The chapters included in the collection adopt different but complementary theoretical and methodological approaches to address a rich mix of interrelated issues. These issues include the factors that enhance or inhibit innovation in African firms, the sources of (knowledge/information for) innovation, policy options for overcoming constraints and facilitating firm-level innovation, the nature and roles of brokers and intermediaries in dealing with innovation constraints and in facilitating the innovation process and the role of interactive learning and acquisition of embodied technology in the innovation process.
This book was originally published as a special issue of Innovation and Development.

With the integration of generative artificial intelligence (AI), teachers and learners now have access to powerful tools to enhance their productivity and effectiveness in their work. To meet the demands of this dynamic educational landscape, teachers must embrace AI to handle repetitive tasks, freeing them to focus on more intelligent and humanistic responsibilities. For learners, responsible use of AI could make learning more fun, personalized, flexible, and enriching. This insightful new book explores the evolving role of educators in higher education in a world of rapid technological advancements and provides a practical outline of the available technologies.
By integrating Generative AI into teaching and learning, Higher Education Institutions can contribute to achieving inclusive and equitable quality education, a target of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all. Generative AI can be used to enhance teaching and learning experiences, foster creativity, and develop new learning experiences in higher education. This book is a valuable resource for educators navigating the ever-changing landscape of education technology. With scientific background, practical insights and actionable tips, this book will be of interest to scholars of emerging technologies and innovation in education. It will also be of practical use to instructors seeking to harness the power of generative AI, enhancing productivity and transforming their approach to personalized learning.
