Activism in Global Education: From Theory to Practice in Higher
Discussing the intersections of education, social justice, and activism. How can educators and researchers foster activist engagement in their work?
Policy and Practice: A Development Education Review is the Centre for Global Education’s bi-annual, open access, peer reviewed, development education journal. They have recently published Issue 29 - ANGEL members might be interested to have a read.
The theme of Issue 29 is ‘Development Education and Gender’ and puts the issues of feminism and gender very firmly on the development education radar. As Siobhán Madden says in her Guest Editorial, this issue is timely as feminist activists are strategising ahead of the ‘Beijing +25’ conferences to be held in 2020 in Mexico City and Paris, for resistance to neoliberalism and climate change.
Issue 29 features several timely and engaging contributions that seek to energise and broaden the conversation about gender in the development education sector. The articles address the issue theoretically and in the context of practice in Ireland and the global South.
