This book offers a treatment of social justice and higher education within small island developing states like the Caribbean. This is a timely exploration of some of the global-local, structure-actor, policy-practice debates that connect directly to the promise and the challenges of pursuing social justice agendas within and beyond Caribbean institutions of higher education.In this book, the key points of examination are the (i) changing patterns within the global higher education landscape, emerging mandates for university systems, (ii) the perspectives and challenges for diverse student and staff populations, and (iii) the ways in which these collectively impact social justice agendas within institutions of higher education. The contextualization and politicization of these issues within the broader discourse of small island developing states deepens the understanding of the prospects and challenges of addressing social injustices within the contemporary landscape, but with some re-engagement of existing conceptions and theorizations (related to inclusivity, diversity, equity, ontology, coloniality, postcolonial and critical race theory) to inform how actors within these institutions can strategically respond.It will be vital reading for scholars and educational researchers with interests in higher education, social justice, and small island developing states (SIDS).

This interdisciplinary collection draws on the insights of poets, academics, policy makers and practitioners to offer new ways of understanding and responding to the social, psychological and structural challenges facing Caribbean youth today. Using decolonial and social ecological frameworks, the chapters expose how power, knowledge and practice intersect in the lives of young people and propose transformative pathways for more holistic but contextually specific approaches to safeguarding. Amplifying young voices – featuring their own words, experiences and scholarly contributions – this volume challenges dominant discourses, reframing global understandings of youth and youth safeguarding from a Caribbean perspective. A vital step toward decolonising knowledge and reimagining social justice for the next generation.
Mentoring as Critically Engaged Praxis
Storying the Lives and Contributions of Black Women Administrators

This edited volume seeks to interrogate the structures that affect the perceptions, experiences, performance and practices of Black women administrators. The chapters examine the nature and dynamics of the conflict within that space and the ways in which they transcend or confront the intersecting structures of power in academe. A related expectation is for interrogations of the ways in which their institutional contexts and, marginalized status inform their navigational strategies and leadership practices. More specifically, this work explores mentorship as critical praxis; that being, the ways in which Black women’s thinking and practices around mentoring affect their institutional contexts or environment, and, that of other marginalized groups within academe. A discussion of Black women in higher education administration as critically engaged mentors will ultimately diversify thought, approaches, and solutions to larger social and structural challenges embedded within academic climates.

Intersectionality acknowledges the ways social identities intersect to influence individuals’ experiences of privilege and oppression. While widely embraced across regions and academic fields, understanding its application to mentoring relationships remains limited. This edited collection bridges this gap by exploring how intersectional scholarship intersects with mentoring practices within the context of the Caribbean.Emphasizing the role of mentoring as a form of activism, Intersectional Mentoring, Solidarity and Advocacy in Higher Education: A Caribbean Perspective navigates the multifaceted dimensions of intersectionality, grounding the dynamics around its theoretical, methodological and empirical applications within the Caribbean context.Academics, researchers, and professionals across various disciplines, particularly those interested in intersectionality, Caribbean studies, mentoring practices, and social justice, will greatly benefit from this work. Its comprehensive exploration of intersectional scholarship within the Caribbean context, coupled with insights into mentoring dynamics and applications, offers valuable perspectives and strategies for fostering inclusive practices within academia and beyond
