"This book examines how the Ford Foundation International Fellowships Program, the world's largest private fellowship program in higher education, has succeeded in fostering social justice leadership over the past ten years. Top scholars from Asia Pacific, Latin America, the US, Africa, and Europe inquire into the program's development, implementation, and outcomes in their regions. They analyze the program's background, its effects on institutions, its effects on students' learning environments, and how well changes toward social justice worked. Through in-depth studies of leadership, diversity, social inclusion, and social justice in regional context, this book provides a wealth of comparative information on social justice in higher education worldwide"--Provided by publisher.; "b. The Ford Foundation International Fellowships Program (IFP) is among the most significant private higher education initiatives in the 21st century. From 2000-2013 it provided 4,300 post-graduate fellowships to underrepresented groups in 22 countries and territories world-wide. The program helped restructure educational policies and practice to promote access, create diverse learning environments, and infuse social justice perspectives"--Provided by publisher. |
