Mapping the Terrain of Education Research
Location: Global
Organization: International Institute of Islamic Thought (Ilham Nasser, Ph.D. – Senior Researcher)
Category: Research paper
This is a result of research that emerged from the need to address the gaps in this area of non-academic education with the long-term goal of contributing to human development and a better future for all through a focus on psychosocial wellbeing and values. The two-year study brings the voices and aspirations of youth and young adults to the reform discussion and takes an asset-based approach to youth and their development. This is of particular importance in many Muslim societies because the young generations are reacting to the current geopolitical conditions (with resistance and/or resilience) without an authentic assessment of their struggles. This is important to ensure their futures in a global reality where employability and civic engagement are at the forefront of the reform agenda.
