 joint REAL Centre/Centre for Lebanese Studies seminar series aims to tackl
 e multiple and interrelated injustices in the Global South\, which manifes
 t in war and genocide\, and their interconnection with environmental degra
 dation and resource conflict. Education is a critical site for scrutinisin
 g and deconstructing systemic injustice. This seminar series pays particul
 ar attention to the way in which education is affected\, both as potential
  cause\, consequence and maintainer of injustices\, as well as opportuniti
 es education offers for eradicating inequities.\nThe series examines the u
 nderlying historical and political processes that drive and perpetuate the
 se injustices. Particular attention is paid to the ways in which states in
  the Global North cause\, and exacerbate\, such injustices\, perpetuating 
 the colonial legacy in diverse contexts of the Global South. This series e
 xplores how the unfolding genocide and long-term occupation of Palestine h
 ighlight the inadequacy of the global system in addressing these atrocitie
 s. It explores how the global system propped up the system of Apartheid in
  South Africa and how global support for human rights was key to bringing 
 out an end to the system in 1994. Likewise\, the intensifying turmoil in S
 udan serves as a poignant illustration of the injustices perpetuated withi
 n an inequitable global system. Deploying an intersectional lens across di
 verse contexts\, this seminar series animates discussion about key educati
 on challenges\, including violence against girls and women\, racism\, colo
 nialism\, displacement\, and advocates for ethical and committed scholarsh
 ip.\n&nbsp\;\nMore about the series and how to register for all of the sem
 inars.\n&nbsp\;
