Brad Brockman

Brad is an activist from South Africa who previously led Equal Education, a movement of students, parents, teachers, and community members campaigning for quality and equality in the education system.

He has worked on campaigns for textbooks, libraries, sanitation, transport and school infrastructure standards, as well as against corporal punishment, illegal exclusions and school closures. His SCI fellowship allowed him to research and write about youth activist movements in different parts of the world.

He produced a set of case studies on youth activist movements in the USA, Brazil, Chile, India and Egypt. He is now working here at the Tshisimani Centre for Activist Education where the case studies form part of the curriculum.
