I am an Assistant Professor at the Waseda Institute for Advanced Study, Waseda University. My research interests include the intersection of comparative and international education with international relations and the political economy of development, focused primarily in Southeast Asia. I work with the World Bank in Cambodia and Afghanistan and the Asian Productivity Organization in Tokyo; teach at Waseda’s Graduate School of Asia Pacific Studies, the University of Tokyo, Keio University, and Sophia University; and host a weekly podcast on education, globalization, and society called FreshEd. Since 2006, I’ve worked in education in Asia. For three consecutive summers, while completing my undergraduate degree at Lehigh University, I taught advanced English in Taipei, Taiwan. During my graduate studies (also at Lehigh), I served as an NGO Representative at United Nations headquarters in New York City for a Singapore-based NGO. Upon completion of my master’s of education in comparative and international education, I moved to and worked in Cambodia for two years, developing a research department at This Life Cambodia (TLC). While with TLC, I conducted a research study on private tutoring in six schools, which was funded by the Open Society Foundation’s Privatisation in Education Research Initiative. I also worked on Child Friendly Schools in Siem Reap, Cambodia. After two years in Cambodia, I moved to Hong Kong to pursue my Ph.D. in comparative education under the guidance of Mark Bray. In August 2015, I completed my doctoral studies at the Faculty of Education at The University of Hong Kong. My dissertation explored the various social relations enacted by individuals in an environment of educational privatization in one Cambodian village. After completing my Ph.D., I was awarded a Japan Society for the Promotion of Science postdoctoral research fellow in the Graduate School of Education, University of Tokyo, Japan.

The first thread of his research agenda focuses on the challenges and possibilities of citizenship education in universities and nonformal spaces within North Africa, Southwest Asia and Southern Europe. The second thread, within the United States, explores questions around teacher education programs incorporating pedagogies of global citizenship education, and examines transformative models of GCE as a form of university internationalization at home. Through teaching, research and program development, this agenda attempts to advance understandings of: transformative and decolonial models of citizenship education; responsibilities of universities addressing social/global issues; and the intersections between social struggle, citizenship education, and self/social change.

Ana Solano-Campos is an Assistant Professor of Teacher Education, Literacy, and ELLs in the College of Education and Human Development at the University of Massachusetts-Bostonhere. Her work on sociolinguistics and education in transnational contexts investigates the mechanisms by which different approaches to linguistic diversity exacerbate or diminish existing educational inequities for immigrant and refugee learners. She asks: What are the barriers experienced by bilingual immigrant/refugee students (and their teachers) in schools? How can we find avenues to diminish or eliminate those barriers? She has primarily examined the differences between South-North and South-South processes of migrant incorporation, specifically in educational settings in the United States and Costa Rica. Her scholarship proposes a focus on shared civic histories, practices, and spaces across geopolitical contexts. Recent publications: Solano-Campos, A. (Forthcoming).
