About Global Development and Education, MA - at School of Politics and International Studies, University of Leeds

This programme examines political, economic, and socio-cultural transformations in the Global South and interrogates the dynamics, challenges and opportunities confronting its societies – with a focus on the role of education in development.

This programme will enable you to gain advanced insights into strategies, programmes and policies in development and education, including organisations and donors promoting development, and assess the progress made towards key international development and education goals.

In addition, you will analyse both the theories and realities of education in development to understand the different approaches, practices and discourses involved.
