My research interests include youth and student engagement, participation, leadership and voice. I am also more broadly interested in the ethics and politics of education, tertiary education policy and the work of Paulo Freire and John Dewey. My research is inspired by my experience as a former youth leader and an elected officer of the Union of Students in Ireland. My passion is around the inclusion of marginalised voices, particularly young people and students, and the potential of these voices to advance change toward social justice and increasingly ecological sustainability.
Student engagement, participation, leadership and voice.
