Project Description

Sustainable Employability through HEI’s Innovative Pedagogy (SUSIE) continues the development started by the IRIS project on Introducing Reverse Innovation to Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Tanzania (HEI ICI 2017-2020). The impact of IRIS can be seen and heard in TUDARCo practices and operations. The motivation of teachers increased, students indicate inspiration towards studies and especially, to work along with private, public and third sector.

SUSIE expands the results of IRIS in building HEIs capacity in Tanzania, increasing accessibility to studies and information, promoting innovation capabilities and creating concrete job opportunities for sustainable employment. Moreover, SUSIE improves circular economy thinking among both students and local communities. SUSIE is executed by TUAS and three partner Universities in Tanzania, together HEIs, NGO’s, authorities and private companies. 

The context of the project Sustainable Employability through HEI’s Innovative Pedagogy (SUSIE) is to build Higher Education Institute’s (HEI’s) capacity in Tanzania. SUSIE activities are aimed towards young peoples’ employability, innovations generation and working life skills, as well as reaching new students in rural conditions via e-learning solutions, to have access to studies to improve their employability in the private sector.  The goal of employability and promotion of innovations is supported by a selection of NGO’s and private sector companies in the project.

SUSIE (e-) pedagogical developments, Campus HUBs and library learning centre e-course offering are addressing global goals; green and circular economy. This is a conscious choice of course contents to promote awareness of climate change effects, to open and diversify private sector with potential innovations and start-ups in the field and to make SUSIE company cooperation easy, mutually beneficial and concrete around a common theme. 

Key results to be achieved:

1. Strengthened capacity building improved by sustainable leadership and strategy work

2. Enhanced relevance and pedagogical capacity by increasing active (e-) pedagogy competence of teachers

3. Improved accessible and interactive learning environments by establishing interactive Campus HUBs and e-learning facilities to public libraries.
