Biography

Professor Coates teaches, researches, and lectures on issues of globalization, social justice and human rights. Currently he is working with 20 universities from around the globe towards producing a innovative curriculum which will not only explore these issues, but allow students to interact in a kind of global classroom. He is also extensively published in the areas of race and ethnic relations, education and policy. His focus in these issues is from a social justice and sociological paradigm.

The annual trivia competition is great fun and embraces everyone present in the energy of the room. We all learned a lot, shared many laughs, with moments of triumph as well as defeat. Global education as no longer a curriculum add-on, but rather a necessity for all students, as job markets and economies are increasingly interdependent. We are proudly associated with GCWAC.”
