Centre for International Education and Research, Educational research institution in Birmingham, United Kingdom.
The Centre for International Education and Research is a research facility at the University of Birmingham that examines education systems and policies across different countries. It offers postgraduate programs and studies how education relates to human rights, development goals, and access to learning opportunities worldwide.
The centre was established in the 1950s when British scholars began engaging with the United Nations' educational programs and initiatives. It grew from a desire to develop international perspectives in education research and build academic connections across different regions.
The Centre maintains partnerships with educational institutions worldwide, conducting research projects in Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas.
Visitors can learn about ongoing research projects and study options through the institution's online resources and publications. The facilities are located within the University of Birmingham campus, where students have access to broader university resources and services.
The institution helped establish the British University in Dubai and pioneered research on education in conflict-affected regions around the world. This work allowed the centre to develop new approaches for understanding how learning can continue in difficult circumstances.
