This book introduces students to education as a vehicle for social change. Douglas Bourn begins by providing historical context of how education has been linked to social change around the world and moves on, in the second section of the book, to discuss potential theoretical and conceptual frameworks for thinking about education for social change. The third sections covers how social change has been explored and promoted within different areas of learning, including schooling, youth work and higher education. The fourth section looks at the opportunities and challenges for promoting education for social change and reviews current international initiatives including those of global citizenship and climate change. Key theorists are introduced throughout the book including bell hooks, Dewey, Giroux, Gramsci, and Freire. Each chapter begins with an opening question and ends with bulleted concluding points, questions for discussion and a further reading list.

The book includes a foreword written by Tania Ramalho (State University of New York, USA).

Douglas Bourn is Professor of Development Education and Co-Director of the Development Education Research Centre at University College London, UK. He is author of The Theory and Practice of Development Education (2015), editor of The Bloomsbury Handbook of Global Education and Learning (Bloomsbury, 2020), and was previously the editor of the International Journal of Development Education and Global Learning.
