Schueler, Beth E.; Rodriguez-Segura, Daniel – Education Finance and Policy, 2021
Access to quality secondary schooling can be life changing for students in developing contexts. In Kenya, entrance to such schools was historically determined by performance on a high-stakes exam.

Fashion has a varied and explosive history. Our responsibility as educators preparing students and therefore careers for this context places us in a very difficult and complex position.
