Scholars have adopted a wide range of conceptualisations of social justice to analyse how (in)justices play out in different forms of education (formal, non-formal and informal), and how educations can contribute to social (in)justice. However, two factors are missing in these approaches: young people’s perspective and interdisciplinarity.

The aim of the project was to build on, and extend, the previous research on the topic to develop youth-led and interdisciplinary understandings of social justice in and through educations. Our final event will provide the opportunity to have exchanges between a group of young people from different countries, and academics. They will be engaged in some activities in order to have an active role in the shaping of a new concept of social justice in and through educations. The event will take place on Zoom, and anyone interested is welcome to join us.

The registered participants will receive an email with the meeting ID and passcode. We hope to see you there!
