🎓 Join Us for an Exciting Expert Talk on Adultcentrism in Education

Education, as an intergenerational relationship shaped by cultures, institutions, and political economy, primarily relies on age-based segregation and hierarchies. Understanding the power dynamics and transformative potential of age-based relational divisions requires examining how oppressive structures are enabled through constructed notions of ‘adulthood’ and ‘childhood’. This talk introduces key theoretical developments in educational research, highlighting the transformative lens of childism and its critical engagement with adult-centrism.
