Synopsis

Available open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence.

This book examines how education can drive change for marginalized communities across the Global South. Drawing on evidence from 67 projects in India, Rwanda, Somaliland/Somalia and South Africa, the book shows how education can expand youth livelihoods, strengthen sustainable cities and advance climate action.

Yet for education to fulfil this role, it must be reimagined ― tackling entrenched inequalities of class, caste, clan, gender, race, rurality and indigeneity. Arguing for more democratic, public and inclusive forms of education, the book calls for research that prioritizes collaboration and equity over top-down models, offering a bold new agenda for transformative practice.
