Today we take stock of the first human rights guiding principles for education, known as the Abidjan Principles. Adopted in 2019, these principles provide guidelines for State obligations to provide quality public education and the role of the private sector in education. My guest is Frank Adamson, Assistant Professor at California State University, Sacramento. Together with Sylvain Aubry, Mireille de Koning, and Delphine Dorsi, he’s recently co-edited the open-access book, Realizing the Abidjan Principles on the Right to Education: Human Rights, Public Education, and the Role of Private Actors in Education.www.freshedpodcast.com/adamson/--Get in touch!Twitter: @FreshEdpodcastFacebook: FreshEdEmail: info@freshedpodcast.comSupport FreshEd: www.freshedpodcast.com/donate

NEPC Talks Education: An Interview with Frank Adamson

My guest today, educational researcher Dr. Frank Adamson, gives us a look at his new book: "Global Educational Reform: How Privatization and Public Investment influence Education Outcomes" (Routledge), which he co-edited with Bjorn Astrand and Linda Darling-Hammond. Frank is a Senior Policy and Research Analyst at the Stanford Center for Opportunity Policy in Education. His new book, due out in March of 2016, offers a comparative look at the education policies and outcomes in six countries - Chile, Cube, Sweden, Finland, Canada, and the United States.  Frank and his co-editors selected these countries because collectively they span a range of education policy approaches – from neoliberal approaches that emphasize school vouchers to social democratic approaches that emphasize government’s responsibility for education.
