Event overview
Reparative Futures of Education
In this talk, I explore the possibility of reparation to address the injustices of unequal schooling systems. The idea of reparation requires us to understand the interconnections between past, present and future in both the formation of injustice and its repair. It implies that until injustices are actively addressed they can endure in social institutions – such as education – which also shape lives-to-come. I will be sharing details of a new five year research project which examines how reparative frameworks can create different futures of education. The project asks: what does reparation in school systems look like? Injustice is not an inevitability in reparative futures of education: these are new, if challenging, theoretical and methodological horizons for the field of education.
