Abstract
The research study assesses the inter-relationship between academic mobility and
interculturality of African students in higher education institutions in Africa. My interest
is skewed to academically mobile students in Africa because a large focus is on the
Global North. A significant amount of research has been majorly focused on African
mobility to the Global North specifically in the United States of America, United
Kingdom, Australia, etc. with little research on the mobility in the African Continent.
The study seeks to address concerns on whether there is an interrelationship between the
academic movement between Africa students and how an individual acquires
intercultural competence in an internationalized institution. This is because there are
concerns about whether studying in a multicultural environment guarantees that the
individual will learn the necessary skills that will help them within and outside their
environment.
