This event has been organised to present and debate the content of Issue 41 of the Centre for Global Education’s bi-annual, open access, peer reviewed journal Policy and Practice: A Development Education Review. The theme of this issue is ‘Development Education (DE) and Hope’ which reflects on how as educators we can maintain our activism, solidarity and optimism as multiple crises impact our world. The speakers at the session will be three of the authors who published articles in Issue 41. They will present their papers and debate their content with global education and higher education practitioners. The event will be held on Zoom and pre-registration on Eventbrite is essential for participants.

• Benedict Arko: Espousing Hope or Entrenching Gloom? A Critical Discourse Analysis of Oxfam’s Global Inequality Reports Through the Lens of Freire’s Pedagogy of Hope
