- Description
- In this Issue of International Studies in Widening Participation (ISWP) it is my great pleasure to introduce two incoming editors, Dr. Marie-Pierre Moreau and Dr. Nadine Zacharias. They bring with them an impressive range of expertise in both research and practice to enrich the journal’s praxis-based philosophy and scholarly exploration of the many different aspects of widening participation (WP) across all stages of student engagement in higher education (HE). ‘Praxis’-based approaches highlight the importance of engaging in iterative, reflexive forms of action/reflection. The overarching aim of ISWP is to find ways to challenge and disrupt entrenched historical educational inequalities, especially those powerful forms which are reproduced through discourses that are often insidious and ‘hidden’ from view, and which therefore often operate through subliminal habits, rather than any overt intention to be limiting and exclusionary.
