SUMMARY:SASNET Seminar with Karen Valentin\, Aarhus universitet: Moral Econ
 omies of Schooling
DESCRIPTION:Kontakt: Ted.Svensson@svet.lu.se\n\nKaren Valentin from Aarhus 
 University is coming to Lund to present her ongoing project:&nbsp\;https:/
 /projects.au.dk/moral-economies-of-schooling.&nbsp\;The seminar is co-orga
 nized by SASNET and the School of Social Work.&nbsp\;Chair: Ted Svensson.M
 oral Economies of Schooling: Money\, Morality and Household Financing of E
 ducationDespite widespread ideals of free school education for all\, priva
 te households fund an increasingly large share (39 %) of primary and secon
 dary education globally. This is especially the case in low-income countri
 es\, including Nepal\, where persistent underfunding of public education m
 eans that private investment continues to play an important role in access
  to and acquisition of formal education.&nbsp\;Driven by an unwavering fai
 th in formal education\, Nepali families make huge financial sacrifices to
  send their children to school\, often resulting in complex relationships 
 involving loans\, credit and debt. Decisions about what and whom to invest
  in are fraught with conflicting expectations of care\, responsibility\, d
 uty and guilt\, turning economic priorities into moral concerns.&nbsp\;The
  aim of this presentation is\, firstly\, to share how tensions between eco
 nomic strategies and moral responsibilities in decisions and practices rel
 ated to household funding of education render visible across social class\
 ; secondly to reflect on Nepal as a case for exploring such tensions in th
 e wider South Asian context.\n\nMer information om händelsen: https://www
