A team led Dr Zoe Strachan, School of Critical Studies, University of Glasgow, and which includes Dr Mia Perry, core CR&DALL member, and Professor George Olusola Ajibade from Obafemi Awolowo University in Nigeria are engaged in a project funded with £20,000 from the British Academy. This funding is part of the UK Global Challenges Research Programme and involves running a workshop for early career researchers in Africa. Despite inclusion of social science and arts practitioners and scholars in international funding schemes, teams face challenges in writing academic papers that merge input from all disciplines involved. This workshop will enable early-career researchers in the arts & humanities and social sciences from five African countries to develop increased confidence in writing and submitting work, move into lead authorship positions within their own international cross-sector teams, and form new collaborative partnerships through which to access funding for interdisciplinary research. The workshop will provide participants with the opportunity to engage with more expansive and experimental forms of critical writing, which are increasingly embraced by international journals (particularly those with an interdisciplinary focus). This will aid the dissemination of key research findings and methodologies, and lead to an increased impact profile for the vital role of the social sciences and humanities in sustainability research in low and middle income countries.

This project funded by VVOB Education for Development in Brusselswith a grant of €29,658 is led by CR&DALL core member, Professor Ellen Boeren and also involves Dr Srabani Maitra, also a CR&DALL core member, and Dr Dong Nguyen, a lecturer in the School of Education. It consists of a systematic literature review on Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) in the Global South and addresses six research questions:

1. How are PLC defined?
2. How and by whom are PLC initiated?
3. Are PLC effective as an instrument for PD of teachers and/or school leaders?
4. Are effective PLC sustainable?
5. Are PLC costly?
6. What advice to VVOB (as an implementor of PLC) and policymaking can we give for each of the above questions?

The literature review will be carried out in a systematic way and will extract sources through the use of a combination of search engines such as Scopus, Google Scholar and EbscoHost. Dissemination will be undertaken through the production of a working paper, a journal article and a conference presentation.
