Paper long abstract:
My paper will focus on two faith-based Universities in East African, established at their beginning by funding from Gulf countries, but which, over time, became almost national. These are the Islamic University in Uganda and the African International University in Khartoum (Sudan).
What role each group involved in this process did play (Gulf countries, African states, Islamic and non-Islamic communities of Uganda and Sudan)? What is the relationship between these African countries and the Gulf countries? These are the kinds of questions that my paper will seek to elucidate.
