Women have historically provided vision and leadership to African countries and are now being recognized as pivotal to the overall sustainable development of Africa. In many cases, however, this recognition has not resulted in the empowerment of African women, who still face great discrimination. This edited volume explores the contributions women have made to all phases of development—planning, design, construction, implementation, and operation—and the obstacles they have had to face. Besides analyzing the current situation and identifying trends, the contributors also make recommendations for policy reform and for future planning.

Following the pioneering work of James Beane and Heidi Jacobs, there is now a growing interest in the area of integrative teaching. At the middle level area, there are attempts to encourage teachers to work in integrating the curriculum in interdisciplinary teams. This book builds on earlier works on curriculum integration. Contributors to this edited volume include K-12 principals and teachers, as well as university professors recently involved in the implementation of integrative teaching.
