This event has been organised to present and debate the content of Issue 37 of the Centre for Global Education’s bi-annual, open access, peer reviewed journal Policy and Practice: A Development Education Review. The theme of this issue is ‘Frontlines of Activism’ which reflects on a central plank of development education practice; supporting action for social change. Issue 37 asked to what extent is development education supporting activism and citizenship, and how is this activism manifesting itself? Given the urgent need for activism in response to crises such as the climate emergency and the culture wars targeting migrants and asylum-seekers, active citizenship has never been more important, making Issue 37 very timely. The aim of this event is to enable three authors who have published in Issue 37 to present their papers and debate the content with development education and higher education practitioners.
The event will be held on Zoom and pre-registration on Eventbrite is essential for participants.
