Funded Activity Summary

The Effectiveness of Global Sexual Rights Policy in Education. This project plans to explore the usefulness and harmfulness of global rights-based policy processes for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer students. New global sexual rights policies for schools and related transnational processes paradoxically appear to have contributed to the criminalisation of (and even capital punishment for) education on homosexuality in several countries. This project intends to map the order and movement of transnational discourses about these students in global education policies and processes, consider how they reflect different regions' perspectives, and compare them to localised approaches. The knowledge from the project is expected to inform policy processes.
