Unravelling Feminist Transformative Education Practices: An Indian experience

Malini Ghose

Development, 2010, vol. 53, issue 4, 479-485

Abstract: Malini Ghose draws on examples from rural India to illustrate what could represent transformative education processes for adult women that are informed by feminist perspectives. She presents two short case studies that connect the personal trajectories of women who have embarked on journeys to become literate and seek an education beyond the educational programmes that have enabled them to do so. These are contextualized with a brief overview of the discourses that have framed adult women's literacy and education in post-independent India.
