Résumé
* An earlier version of this paper was presented to a conference, “Improving Tertiary Education in Sub-Saharan Africa: Things That Work!” sponsored by the Association of African Universities and the World Bank, in Accra, Ghana, September 23–25, 2003.
Au début de l’année académique 1994–1995, le gouvernement avait brutalement supprimé les fonds universitaires en provenance du ministère kenyan des Finances, mettant ainsi l’Université de Nairobi au défi de diversifier ses sources de revenus. En réaction à cela, l’Université a aussitôt adopté le concept de « l’université entrepreneuriale », en mettant en place une société holding indépendante et rentable – University of Nairobi Enterprises and Services Ltd (UNESL). Les responsables du planning devaient se focaliser sur sa principale compétence : apporter de la valeur ajoutée à la connaissance. Le développement le plus rentable (mais également le plus radical) fut l’ajout du Module II (ou module parallèle) intégrant les étudiants qui s’autofinancent, adoptant ainsi la pratique des droits d’inscription, ainsi que le concept de la participation aux coûts, au moins pour ce type d’étudiants, au profit de l’ensemble de la communauté universitaire. Le « Model II », ainsi que les autres activités génératrices de revenus, qui sont parvenus à vaincre le mur des nombreuses résistances à ce programme, ont permis à l’université d’améliorer substantiellement sa base financière et d’élargir l’accès à ses programmes d’éducation.
