Welcome! This is the blog site for the  British Council funded ReMaLIC project (“Reaching out to marginalised populations in under-resourced countries”).

We will be collecting first-hand accounts of the educational experiences of marginalised young people aged 13-15, their parents and their teachers in four low-income countries in Asia and Africa (Bangladesh, Nepal, Senegal, Sudan) in order to reflect on the roles of the English language and technology in reinforcing or reducing marginalisation. Our ultimate aim is to make recommendations for policy and practice that will support young people at transitional points in their lives.

We will use this blog to keep you informed of our project’s ambitions and progress.

ReMaLIC is funded through the British Council’s Widening Participation Research Grants and runs from March 2021 to October 2022.

Led by The Open University (UK), the consortium includes Monash University (Australia),  University of Dhaka (Bangladesh), Ahfad University for Women (Sudan), CRFPE Diourbel, Rufisque (Senegal), and Tribhuvan University (Nepal).
