It encompasses the complex interplay of natural factors, human activities, and environmental policies that contribute to rising temperatures, changing weather patterns, and extreme weather events. The Black Lives Matter movement is a social justice movement that emerged in response to the systemic racism and police brutality faced by Black individuals in the United States. It seeks to promote equity, justice, and human rights for all marginalized communities. The rise of right-wing populism is a global phenomenon characterized by the rise of political parties and movements that prioritize national sovereignty, anti-immigration policies, and economic protectionism. This trend has been observed in various countries, including the United States, Europe, and Asia, and has significant implications for social, political, and economic outcomes. The experience of LGBTQ+ students in school is a critical issue that affects their well-being, academic success, and sense of belonging. LGBTQ+ students face discrimination, harassment, and marginalization in many educational institutions, which can have long-term negative effects on their mental health and overall development. The impact of COVID-19 has been profound and far-reaching, affecting every aspect of society. It has highlighted the importance of public health, resilience, and adaptability in responding to crises. Education has played a crucial role in addressing these challenges, both in terms of providing access to learning resources and adapting to new teaching and learning modalities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 498g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 186 x 231 x 17 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781529764147\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Karl Aubrey,Alison Riley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44638696833274,"sku":"9781529764147","price":28.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697214779448_book.jpg?v=1697392760","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/education-theories-for-a-changing-world-9781529764147","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
