The study explored female students’ quest for leadership and experiential leadership realities in higher educational institutions in Ghana. In Ghana, female enrolment in higher educational institutions has increased due to population increases and campaign for girl-child education. However, despite the opportunities and access to higher education, female students’ quest for leadership positions in their educational institutions is often thwarted and largely insignificant compared to their male counterparts. However, there is evidence in Ghana that national leadership, especially in politics, is usually linked to leadership at tertiary institutions, especially, in the universities.  Using female students’ leadership in governance at the University of Education (UEW) as a study focus, and employing the liberal feminist theory, we hypothesised that female students’ desire for leadership positions in higher education would not differ significantly from reality due to some systemic cultural challenges. The study revealed that certain leadership positions are preserved of males, and females who vie for such positions generally encounter some cultural setbacks . The study concludes that female students are motivated to take leadership positions due to their desire to lead and serve the people, but society uses gender to set limit for women when they vie for leadership positions. The study recommends that teachers and parents should encourage both males and females to take up equal leadership roles early in life to arouse in them the drive for future leadership positions.

The paper on to explore how citizenship education is defined in the system of higher educational institutions in Great Britain and to describe some of the current activities designed to encourage the development of effective practice in this area. A number of key challenges are identified which need to be tackled if the latest policy proposals for citizenship education are to lead to effective practice in the system of higher educational institutions in Ukraine. The relevance of the Concept for the Development of Civic Education in Ukraine is pointed out.

It was noted that education played a crucial role in focused efforts to build and mould a nation, not only economically, but also culturally and psychologically. The most important goal of education is preparation of young people for their role as good citizens. Be important today, how universities and institutions of higher learning in any civilised society will contribute to and fulfil their role and perform to society’s expectations of them in terms of citizenship. It is apparent that, given the university sectors hugely significant role in both the production, management and application of knowledge and in educating the next generation of leaders, universities are critical to the mission of promoting globally informed citizenship. A key challenge for modern education system is to design curricula that connect academic with civic learning, enable students to understand the public purposes of their discipline and prepare students for lives as active citizens, responsible disciplinary practitioners, professionals and leaders. It is apparent that, space needs to be found within higher education curricula for the concept of citizenship and for civic engagement. Modern system of higher education has a responsibility to help students develop skills and attributes that promote civically engaged citizens. A topic for prospective research could be an analysis of how differences in social processes in Ukraine and abroad can affect the effectiveness of the implementation of civic education.

The public institutions of higher education have the right to lease out real estate and other individually determined property in the manner prescribed by law and subject to statutory restrictions (without the right of redemption and sublease, when it does not worsen the social and living conditions of persons studying or working in the educational institution).
