Biography
I work on themes concerned with gender, race and class inequalities and their bearing on education. My specialist interests are in the capability approach and human development and education in a number of countries in Africa, with a special interest in South Africa. My current concerns are with education, poverty, addressing intersectional inequalities and global social justice. I have been working on questions concerning indicators and the analysis of data to support international, national and local initatives for change.
