Effects of brain drain on higher education in Cameroon: regional conference on brain drain and capacity building in Africa

Abstract

This paper focuses on the regional conference on brain drain and capacity building in Africa: effects of brain drain on higher education in Cameroon. Brain drain is generally regarded as the international movement of talented people from one country to another in search of a better life. While this concept did not receive any serious attention in the past, the early 1960s brought it to limelight.
