What does quality gender-equitable education look like? How can NGOs, practitioners, policymakers, and researchers work together to achieve it? This book tackles these issues, drawing on the work of the Beyond Access, Gender, Education and Development project-a partnership between Oxfam GB, the Institute of Education (University of London), and the UK Department for International Development. The contributors discuss some of the key challenges in achieving gender equality in education, provide examples of initiatives in a range of contexts, and make recommendations for action. This book is invaluable for anyone involved in developing policy and good practice for quality education for all.

Focusing on gender equality by exploring the interrelations between gender, education and poverty, this work demonstrates a range of methodological frameworks for analysing gender and education with a development context.

The Gender, Culture, and Power Reader explores different approaches to the study and conceptualization of gender, the value and limitations of gender as an analytic category, and the theoretical insights about gender produced by ethnographic research into the everyday lives, labors, loves, and livelihoods of people throughout the world. Expertly edited by Dorothy L. Hodgson, this diverse reader includes both classical debates and relevant contemporary topics like gender-based violence and human rights.

This book, which introduces the underscoring plural perspectives in feminist theories, covers a chronology of over five centuries (from the 1600s to 2000s) in feminist work and theorizing, while introducing contemporary discourses that challenge monolithic representations of feminism. Overall, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to the progressive discussions in feminist theory over the last several decades.
