Professor Pauline Rose

Areas of Interest:

Educational inequality: gender and poverty

International and national policies and practices for reaching the marginalised

Research

Educational policy and practice, including in relation to inequality, financing and governance, democratization, and the role of international aid. I have worked on large collaborative research programmes with teams in sub‐Saharan Africa and South Asia examining these issues. Throughout my career, I have worked closely with international aid donors and non-governmental organisations, providing evidence-based policy advice on a wide range of issues aimed at fulfilling commitments to education for all.
