Researchers from the School of Education and Lifelong Learning and the School of Development Studies at the University of East Anglia have joined together to support and stimulate research interest and teaching in the field of literacy and development. Taking a 'situated literacies' approach, we aim to combine theory and practice, to engage actively with key policy institutions (in the UK and internationally) and to encourage cross-cultural interaction between literacy researchers and practitioners in countries of the North and South. The research interests of the Literacy and Development Group (LDG) include gender, religious literacies, language and education, minority literacies, numeracy practices, ICT and multi-modality, academic literacy, non-formal education and lifelong learning.
