Existing literature on plastic pollution focuses on urban, marine or industrial context…

Social media among African students: Recentring typologies of non-use
Scholars are increasingly starting to engage in analysing non-use of social media among higher education students, but to date there lacks a framework within which to do so.

The themes are: 1) exclusion which may be owing to access problems or the social environment on social media; 2) distrust owing to di…

Despite this, there is often a lack of access to HE in many parts of Africa, distance education can subsequently play an important role in increasing access to education by providing materials online. …
