Dear Colleagues,

FYI. NORRAG (https://www.norrag.org/) just published a blog of mine on UNESCO's 2021/22 Global Education Monitoring Report on non-state actors in education. The Report has some things to commend it but I find it falls far short of what is needed as well as reflect on the privatization of education more broadly. A quote from my blog: "Privatization is a scourge."
