Adult Education and Social Justice: International Perspectives
Author: Maria Slowey
Publisher: Firenze University Press
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
This book investigates the ways in which the social purposes of adult education are (re)interpreted over time, and between the global south and global north.

Transformative Sustainability Education
Author: Elizabeth A. Lange
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000821439
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 403
Book Description
This book lays out the principles and practices of transformative sustainability education using a relational way of thinking and being. Elizabeth A. Lange advocates for a new approach to environmental and sustainability education, that of rethinking the Western way of knowing and being and engendering a frank discussion about the societal elements that are generating climate, environmental, economic, and social issues. Highlighting the importance of Indigenous and life-giving cultures, the book covers educational theory, transformation stories of adult learners, social and economic critique, and visions of changemakers. Each chapter also has a strong pedagogical element, with entry points for learners and embodied practices and examples of taking action at micro/meso/macro levels woven throughout. Overall, this book enacts a relational approach to transformative sustainability education that draws from post humanist theory, process thought, relational ontology, decolonization theory, Indigenous philosophy, and a spirituality that builds a sense of sacred towards the living world. Written in an imaginative, storytelling manner, this book will be a great resource for formal and nonformal environmental and sustainability educators.

Haiti

Pages : 57
Book Description
Haiti faces a challenging macroeconomic outlook amid a dire humanitarian crisis. The country has been hit hard by the economic spillovers from Russia's invasion of Ukraine, with food price inflation triggering a hunger crisis. This global shock has been compounded by a highly volatile security situation, which has heightened the economy's fragility, hampered activity, and generated supply-side bottlenecks which have further fueled inflation. The flash floods which hit the country in early June caused loss of life and damage to key infrastructure. Risks to the outlook remain substantial.

The Handbook of Adult and Continuing Education
Author: Tonette S. Rocco
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000978117
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 926
Book Description
Co-published with Colleges and universities are increasingly becoming significant sites for adult education scholarship—in large part due to demographic shifts. With fewer U.S. high school graduates on the horizon, higher education institutions will need to attract “non-traditional” (i.e., older) adult learners to remain viable, both financially and politically. There is a need to develop a better corpus of scholarship on topics as diverse as, what learning theories are useful for understanding adult learning? How are higher education institutions changing in response to the surge of adult students? What academic programs are providing better learning and employment outcomes for adults in college? Adult education scholars can offer much to the policy debates taking place in higher education. A main premise of this handbook is that adult and continuing education should not simply respond to rapidly changing social, economic, technological, and political environments across the globe, but should lead the way in preparing adults to become informed, globally-connected, critical citizens who are knowledgeable, skilled, and open and adaptive to change and uncertainty.The Handbook of Adult and Continuing Education provides rich information on the contemporary issues and trends that are of concern to adult and continuing education, of the programs and resources available to adult learners, and of opportunities to challenge and critique the structures embedded in the field that perpetuate inequity and social injustice. Adult education is a discipline that foresees a better tomorrow, and The Handbook is designed to engage and inspire readers to assist the field to seek new paths in uncertain and complex times, ask questions, and to help the field flourish.The Handbook is divided into five sections. The first, Foundations situates the field by describing the developments, core debates, perspectives, and key principles that form the basis of the field.The second, Understanding Adult Learning, includes chapters on adult learning, adult development, motivation, access, participation, and support of adult learners, and mentoring.Teaching Practices and Administrative Leadership, the third section, offers chapters on organization and administration, program planning, assessment and evaluation, teaching perspectives, andragogy and pedagogy, public pedagogy, and digital technologies for teaching and learning.The fourth section is Formal and Informal Learning Contexts. Chapters cover adult basic, GED, and literacy education, English-as-a-Second Language Programs, family literacy, prison education, workforce development, military education, international development education, health professions education, continuing professional education, higher education, human resource development and workplace learning, union and labor education, religious and spiritual education, cultural institutions, environmental education, social and political movements, and peace and conflict education.The concluding Contemporary Issues section discusses decolonizing adult and continuing education, adult education and welfare, teaching social activism, lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer and straight allies, gender and its multiple forms, disability, older adults and intergenerational identities, race and ethnicity, working class, whiteness and privilege, and migrants and migrant education.The editors culminate with consideration of next steps for adult and continuing education and priorities for the future.

Maladies of the Indian Banking Sector
Author: Saumitra Bhaduri
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1009225464
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 253
Book Description
"The global financial crisis of 2007-09 highlighted the importance of capital structure for the economy as a whole and for individual firms as well. The ensuing credit and profitability crunch due to the contraction of the global economy made it vitally imperative to understand how the capital structure choices of the firms are affected and what impact these choices have on the functioning of the markets. Since, like in most emerging countries, the capital structure of Indian firms is dominated by bank borrowing, it has become important to understand the role of bank borrowing in a larger context. Maladies of the Indian Banking Sector provides an in-depth analysis of bank credit allocation to non-financial companies in the Indian corporate sector over a long period of 28 years. The authors also conduct a micro-level analysis in the backdrop of recent banking scams in the country which exposed the fragility and quality of the banks' governance in reducing misappropriation of bank credit. The book brings a broader perspective to assess whether weak banks are rolling over their loans to less-deserving firms and tending to avoid declaring them as non-performing assets (NPAs). It contributes to understanding the nature of the maladies beyond the conventional approach of studying the trends in NPAs and provides a deeper insight into the structural challenges that determine the allocation of bank credit in the economy and of capital formation at large"--
