Description

Women Leading Education across the Continents is the first collection of research about and stories of women in basic and higher education leadership from every region of the globe. The chapters are authored by scholars representing every continent, including a keynote from the first all female team to traverse Antarctica. The book captures not only statistical data about the position of women in basic and higher education in over 17 countries, but relates compelling insights and stories about the challenges that women face in leadership, the limited access to education by young women, and some strategies for success that have fanned a flame to light the way for both women and men to follow toward equity and social justice. Review Readers will find this work a rich tapestry of trial, testimony, and ultimately triumph of women working their way into positions of formal leadership in education throughout the world. That they have come so far is due to their tenacity, compassion, and sense of community. Join in the continued march toward full emancipation, freedom, and recognition of the complex tasks that lie ahead. You will be inspired.--Fenwick W. English, Professor and Department Chair, Educational Leadership, Teachers College, Ball State University The book is thought-provoking and provides purposeful reflection from a world of scholars working together to promote social justice. Their work is also inspirational. It should be read by female leaders who possess a deep passion for education.--School Administrator Now that female superintendents in the US have moved from 6% in 1992 to 20% in 2008, one might think this momentum will continue throughout the world. There is much work to be done by all of us to bring gender equity to enlightened societies. Bravo to Sobehart and the 37 contributors for informing us of this important work and reminding of us of the work still to be done.--Sarah Jerome, former president of the American Association of School Administrators and Arlington Heights School District 25 superintendent This book is a must-read by female leaders around the world. The result of teamwork from global educators, Women Leading Education across the Continents focuses on gender, educational leadership, and social justice. Each contribution gives the reader insight into the challenges women face around the world. It is a volume of hope and inspiration for all who have a passion for education.--Liv Arnesen and Ann Bancroft, Exploresource LLC About the Author professor of education, University of Southampton, UK
