Education as Transformation – Education for transformation

Author

  • Manzoor Ahmed

Abstract

Manzoor Ahmed argues that it is necessary to consider education as transformation and education for transformation and the nature of interaction between the two. He looks at inequalities in education and society through a lens of pragmatic reconciliation among competing theories. He embraces a middle ground of state-led partnership to mitigate forces of social reproduction and to ensure human resource development characterized by quality, relevance and equity in the education system. He sees education and learning as both the means and the purpose of building sustainable societies, where human potential is unlocked and human dignity and rights are cherished.
