The ability to inform our perceptions and thoughts through the results of critical reflection on our assumptions is fundamentally important in order to face the challenges connected to adult life (Kreber, 2012). Under the perspective of transformative learning (Mezirow & Associates, 2000), the paper discusses the similarities and differences between the ways in which the Italian and Nigerian higher education systems support students' critical reflection. The results show how the two systems are on the right track to implementing the process at the micro and meso levels UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/id/e50af75f-4dc6-4bb7-a5e8-9084389bb5a2/14717.pdf UR - https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/56169 ER -
