Civil Society Organizations in Latin American Education: Case Studies and Perspectives on Advocacy (Routledge Research in International and Comparative Education)

Examining the roles, impacts, and challenges of civil society organizations (CSOs) in Latin America, this volume provides a broad perspective on the range of strategies these organizations employ and the obstacles they face in advocating for and delivering educational reform. Building on previous research on international and comparative education, development studies, social movements, and nongovernmental organizations, chapter authors provide new insights about the increasing presence of CSOs in education and offer case studies demonstrating how these organizations missions have evolved over time in Latin America.
