Résumé
Cet article examine le processus d’institutionnalisation de l’adoption des résultats de la recherche qui se déroule dans des universités africaines. Il explore l’importance de l’émergence du concept de gestion de l’adoption des résultats de la recherche (RUM) et donne la raison pour laquelle il est de plus en plus pertinent dans le secteur de l’enseignement supérieur, tant à l’intérieur qu’à l’extérieur de l’Afrique. Cet article propose ainsi un cadre conceptuel pour le renforcement des capacités de RUM basé sur une analyse approfondie des documents de source primaire. Il énumère les besoins de renforcement des capacités existantes à travers un nombre d’universités africaines sélectionnées dans la région sub-saharienne, et examine com- ment les universités qui sont dans un stade naissant de développement des pratiques de RUM abordent l’institutionnalisation de l’adoption des résultats de la recherche.
