André Mazawi

Professor
Department of Educational Studies (EDST)

His research explores how economic, cultural, ideological, geopolitical, and political frameworks shape educational governance, policies, and restructuring reforms, with particular emphasis on education in the Arab region and Mediterranean, in both school and higher education settings. Within this context, Dr. Mazawi critically interrogates the notion of “educational innovation” and its emergence as a policy tool in the restructuring of schools, the teaching profession, and curricula.
