New Â鶹´«Ã½ City University formally launches The Urban Education and Teacher Unionism Policy Project with publication of the first Policy Brief explaining the Project’s mission. Â鶹´«Ã½ continues its commitment to urban schools, students, and teachers by creating a space for dialogue among scholars and activists about the intersection of urban education reform and teacher unionism. The Policy Project will publish concise, research-based critical analyses of issues to further strong, mutually respectful alliances between teachers unions and communities of color about historic inequalities in education.
The Policy Project has a distinguished advisory board of leading scholars and activists. Dr. Lois Weiner, Professor of Elementary and Secondary Education, serves as the project's director, and brings a long record of scholarship and advocacy about both teacher unionism in K-12 schools and the education of urban teachers.
