Lingering colonial influences, environmental changes, and international events make the provision of equitable, quality education in the Caribbean challenging. As a group of small states, the Caribbean faces complex educational crises that disrupt inclusion, access, and participation.

This edited collection sheds light on current research that tackles educational development concerns in the Caribbean, with the three chapters from African spaces providing a point of south - south reflection. Noting the important role that education plays in the empowerment of people and the social, economic, and political advancements of a society, the book illustrates interdisciplinary approaches towards educational reform, bringing to the fore methodologies and insights for enhancing inclusive practices, teaching pedagogies, and institutional capacities within the region.

Within the context of developing nations, the chapters explore policies, practices, and institutional frameworks which exist or can be developed to foster the provision of equitable quality education at multiple levels within education delivery. They consider empirical and conceptual frameworks that can be combined to guide educational improvement in the Caribbean and Africa, provide guidance and practice examples which respond to a diverse audience inclusive of policymakers, teachers, and students, and advance international and regional discussions to accelerate progress towards equitable education.
