This book is vitally important at a moment when higher education is internationalizing and global partnerships proliferate. Jaumont asks that academics, funders, and practitioners think about that which they do by casting bright light on the hard won opportunities of a crucial partnership in African higher education and the challenges that remain.
In this book, Jaumont sheds light on the collaborative efforts of major US foundations on the Partnership for Higher Education in Africa. An important resource for those interested in understanding or improving educational philanthropy.

This book provides the reader with a window to peek into the world of foundations, a world that is often closed and not understood by the public. A must read for those interested in working with development agencies and for those depending on donor funding for development.

لقد كان من دواعي سروري زيارة مدرسة PS 30 Mary White Ovington School بحي بروكلين و التعرف عن قرب علي البرنامج المزدوج لتعلم اللغة العربية. و أعجبت كثيرا بالعمل الرائع الذي تقوم به إدارة المدرسة و الفريق المسئول عن هذا البرنامج. البرنامج المزدوج لتعلم اللغة العربية متاح حاليا للطلبة في مرحلة الحضانة وحتى الصف الثاني الابتدائي و لكن نطاقه سوف يتسع ليشمل كل المراحل التعليمية.

I was thrilled to visit the Arabic dual language program at P.S. 30 Mary White Ovington School in Brooklyn, and I was very impressed by the school leadership team as well as the dual language program’s team who are doing an amazing job.

Ho incontrato la preside Louise Verdemare, Joseph Rizzi e Jack Spatola, venerati leader della comunità, e ora anche campioni dell’istruzione bilingue italiana. Come presidi scolastici, sia Jack che Louise sanno come ispirare una intera comunità e ’navigare’ per il complicato sistema scolastico – una rara sintesi di capacità da leader e che può fare una grande differenza. Ho anche visitato la classe pre-K di Holly Dell’Avanzi, ed è stato molto emozionante sentire questi bambini interagire in inglese e italiano.
