Manathunga, Catherine – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2018
The New Colombo Plan and similar student mobility initiatives in Aotearoa/New Zealand have been pitched as reversing the culturally imperialist focus of the original Colombo Plan (CP) because they involve sending Australian and Aotearoa/New Zealand students to the Indo-Pacific region instead of funding Asian students to study overseas. However,…

This process was largely focused on excluding the majority. Over the last 30-40 years, the focus and purpose of assessment has changed. The…
