This article seeks to contribute to the discourse on the appropriate African response to globalisation and internationalisation in higher education by examining the role of internationalisation in capacity-enhancement and development in Africa. In the first part, it explores the theoretical underpinnings of capacity-enhancement through university education and analyses how the intertwined processes of internationalisation and Africanisation can contribute to capacity-enhancement and development in Africa. It is argued that the concept of intellectual metissage, as a form of intellectual cross-fertilisation across international borders, is a necessary and appropriate tool to drive internationalisation with the aim of fulfilling the developmental mandate of African universities. In the second part, a prestigious and highly successful international partnership programme, the LLM/MPhil in human rights and democratisation in Africa is analysed to determine its suitability to drive and actualise the capacity-enhancement aspect of higher education in Africa through intellectual métissage.
