    I suggest using the African Graduate Management Education in Development: A Meeting of African Business School Deans and Directors Directory of Participants and Institutions Represented, which is at:

    http://www.ifc.org/ifcext/bsn.nsf/AttachmentsByTitle/Ghana05_Directory/$FILE/GIMPA+-+GBSN+Meeting+Directory_sansPhones.pdf

    (If this long link breaks in your email just paste the end back on, of course).

     

    Best regards,

    Charles

  • 3.  Search for African Contacts

    Hello Gerhard,
     
    I work at the Lagos Business School in Nigeria (www.lbs.edu.ng).
     
    For Kenya and Senegal at least, you can find some information on the website of the Association of the African Business Schools (AABS):
    These are the larger more developed business schools on the continent.
    (Specifically in Kenya, I would recommend Strathmore Business School (http://www.sbs.ac.ke/) or Strathmore University (http://www.strathmore.edu/) as I have very good links with them.)
     
    For the other countries in your list, you could try contacting the AABS secretariat at: http://www.aabschools.com/page/about_us/contact_us.html
    They have some schools from other countries currently undergoing their admission process, and so might be able to give you more information. Specifically, I suspect you might get data on schools in Uganda.
     
    As you can see, this list is for business schools. I'm not aware of a similar association for universities on the continent in general.
     
    Feel free to email me any questions or clarifications, or if you need assistance with contacting Strathmore in Kenya.
     
    All the best,
    Tunji.
