Beskrivelse
Giving voice to the experience of minority or minoritized leaders in time of crisis (such as natural disasters, economic collapse, or systemic dislocation), this novel volume explores how they not only manage crises in diverse and often precarious institutional contexts, but also redefine leadership, authority, and belonging in the process. this book uses grounded empirical studies and cross-continental perspectives to focus on catalytic crises, those that emerge suddenly and demand immediate, adaptive leadership. Experiences from Türkiye, Syria, South Africa, Thailand, Myanmar, Portugal, Finland, and Ukraine are presented, showcasing how minoritized leaders’ response to transformative moments can shape broader educational futures for students. Chapters cover a wide range of educational settings, from schools serving primarily minoritized populations, to mainstream institutions where minoritized leaders operate within majority systems, and to schools where minority communities are led by educators from dominant cultural groups.
