With just a few years left to shape a new international education agenda, the UNESCO Chair series in Comparative Education Policy invites scholars, decision-makers, and public intellectuals from the Global South to share their analyses of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and broader international agendas. How do international and national actors navigate uncertain futures, shape national developments towards their pre-defined future, or correct wrong projections that have negatively impacted present policy decisions? Perhaps more than any other public sector, education is expected to prepare individuals for the future.

This series, organized by the UNESCO Chair in Comparative Education Policy and NORRAG, navigates the tensions and inequalities inherent in the global aid architecture and discuss the gap between national priorities and global scripts in international development.

Rasha Sharaf is a Professor of International and Comparative Education and Education Administration at Helwan University in Egypt. She serves as the KIX/EMAP Knowledge Lead for South Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa subregion, as well as the NORRAG Regional Editor for the Arabic special issues. Her research interest is in planning of education systems, policy studies and development. Sharaf has consulted and advised in over 15 countries in MENA and South Asia.
