Show Notes

On Chai Talk, the discussion focused on the role of newly established universities in expanding access to higher education in South Sudan, especially in specialised fields such as petroleum, engineering, environment, health, and technology. The programme highlighted how these institutions could help bring education closer to students and build local skills needed for the country’s development.

The discussion also noted that major challenges remain, including floods, poor roads, insecurity, and limited facilities, which could affect the smooth operation of the new universities and require strong support from the government and partners.
